The structure of a ternary complex formed between a T-cell receptor, a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) protein and a viral peptide provides new insights into the cellular immune response. The results provide a molecular basis for understanding the development of T cells and the reactions leading to transplant rejection and autoimmunity.
T细胞受体、主要组织相容性复合体(MHC)蛋白和病毒肽之间形成的三元复合物结构为细胞免疫反应提供了新的见解。这些结果为理解T细胞的发育以及导致移植排斥和自身免疫的反应提供了分子基础。
