MHC Binding site of antigen in Endocytic Pathway
Endocytic vesicles, prelysosomes
in Antigen pathway, the Endocytic Pathway is utilized in:
Class II
(Antigen Pathway) Endocytic Pathway is presents to:
CD4+ (helper) T Cells
Peptide Binding Site of Class I
a1 & a2
MHC CLASS I MOLECULES:
HLA-A, HLA-B,HLA-C
CLASS II MOLECULES:
HLA-DR, HLA-DQ, HLA-DP
Peptide Binding Site of Class II
a1 & b1
How many amino acids are needed in Class I?
8-10 amino acids
It is similar to the constants regions found in the immunoglobulin molecules.
a3 & B2 region
It reacts with CD8+ on cytotoxic T cells.
a3
Where do we found the Class II on antigen-presenting cells?
B cells, Macrophages, Monocytes,dendritic cells
