NONSTANDARD PEPTIDE BINDING OF HLA-B*5101 COMPLEXED WITH HIV IMMUNODOMINANT EPITOPE KM1(LPPVVAKEI)
OverviewOverview
The crystal structures of the human MHC class I allele HLA-B*5101 in, complex with 8-mer, TAFTIPSI, and 9-mer, LPPVVAKEI, immunodominant peptide, epitopes from HIV-1 have been determined by x-ray crystallography. In both, complexes, the hydrogen-bonding network in the N-terminal anchor (P1), pocket is rearranged as a result of the replacement of the standard, tyrosine with histidine at position 171. This results in a nonstandard, positioning of the peptide N terminus, which is recognized by, B*5101-restricted T cell clones. Unexpectedly, the P5 peptide residues, appear to act as anchors, drawing the peptides unusually deeply into the, peptide-binding groove of B51. The unique characteristics of P1 and P5 are, likely to be responsible for the zig-zag conformation of the 9-mer peptide, and the slow assembly of B*5101. A comparison of the surface, characteristics in the alpha1-helix C-terminal region for B51 and other, MHC class I alleles highlights mainly electrostatic differences that may, be important in determining the specificity of human killer cell Ig-like, receptor binding.
