Popis: HLA-C expression levels correlate with immune responses to pathogens and autoimmunity, and vary in an allele-specific manner across individuals. Here the authors identify factors that drive differential expression of HLA-C allomorphs at the cell surface, and influence the structure of the peptide-binding cleft and diversity of peptides bound by HLA-C molecules.
