| Popis: | Experiments were carried out to determine whether complexes between MHC class I molecules and synthetic peptides are representative of those formed under more physiologically relevant conditions, with peptides derived intracellularly from processed antigens. Lysis of cells sensitized with exogenously provided and endogenously generated peptide analogues of the optimal nonameric peptide 58–66 (GILGFVFTL; derived from the influenza virus matrix protein) was compared. Endogenous loading was accomplished by expressing minigene DNA coding for alanine-substituted analogues of peptide 58–66 in HLA-A2-positive cells. Susceptibility to lysis by HLA-A2-restricted, peptide-specific cytotoxic lymphocytes was compared with lysis of cells sensitized with the same synthetic peptides. Although results were quite comparable, differences were observed. The endogenously presented analogues 58–66L60A, G61A, T65A, and L66A were recognized more efficiently than the corresponding exogenously presented analogues. This difference in recognition was most striking for peptide 58–66G61A. These results indicate the need for caution in using synthetic peptides in defining peptide binding motifs. Additional experiments with endogenously expressed analogues of 58–66 with substitutions other than alanine were carried out to define the interaction between this peptide and HLA-A2. Results are compatible with the interpretation that residues 58, 59, and 60 interact with pockets A, B, and D, respectively, in the HLA-A2 binding groove and that these interactions contribute to peptide binding. |
