===The Immunogenicity of a Viral Cytotoxic T Cell Epitope is controlled by its MHC-bound Conformation===
==Disease==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/B2MG_HUMAN B2MG_HUMAN]] Defects in B2M are the cause of hypercatabolic hypoproteinemia (HYCATHYP) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/241600 241600]]. Affected individuals show marked reduction in serum concentrations of immunoglobulin and albumin, probably due to rapid degradation.<ref>PMID:16549777</ref>  Note=Beta-2-microglobulin may adopt the fibrillar configuration of amyloid in certain pathologic states. The capacity to assemble into amyloid fibrils is concentration dependent. Persistently high beta(2)-microglobulin serum levels lead to amyloidosis in patients on long-term hemodialysis.<ref>PMID:3532124</ref><ref>PMID:1336137</ref><ref>PMID:7554280</ref><ref>PMID:4586824</ref><ref>PMID:8084451</ref><ref>PMID:12119416</ref><ref>PMID:12796775</ref><ref>PMID:16901902</ref><ref>PMID:16491088</ref><ref>PMID:17646174</ref><ref>PMID:18835253</ref><ref>PMID:18395224</ref><ref>PMID:19284997</ref>

==Function==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/1B35_HUMAN 1B35_HUMAN]] Involved in the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system. [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/BZLF1_EBV BZLF1_EBV]] Plays a key role in the switch from latent infection to lytic cycle producing new virions. Acts as a transcription factor, inducing early lytic cycle genes, and as a origin binding protein for genome replication. BZLF1 activates the promoter of another EBV gene (BSLF2+BMLF1).<ref>PMID:2157874</ref><ref>PMID:1847997</ref><ref>PMID:8404860</ref><ref>PMID:17079287</ref><ref>PMID:19144704</ref> [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/B2MG_HUMAN B2MG_HUMAN]] Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system.
