The association of peptide fragments with MHC class I molecules is believed to be a requirement for the assembly of the MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum, and transportation of the MHC molecules from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell surface. Recently, investigators have begun t

Particularly prominent during the past year was the analysis of the subcellular compartment in which MHC class II molecules are located. Some investigators also analyzed the site where peptides are generated for MHC class II binding. Studies of invariant chain were particularly important in trying t
Priming of T cells by exogenous antigen cross-presented on MHC class I molecules
Defective ribosomal products provide an important supply of endogenous peptides for entry into the classic MHC class I antigen presentation pathway. The recruitment of endoplasmic reticulum membrane during phagosome biogenesis allows exogenous antigens to be translocated into the cytosol as well as
