We wished to identify and characterize tumor-associated class I peptides which could potentially serve as immunogens for an immunoprotective CD8 response in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Candidate idiotypic peptides were identified from the third complementarity determining region (CDR3) of the
Diversity of T cell receptor a and p chain genes expressed by human T cells specific for similar myelin basic protein peptide/major histocompatibility complexes\* Tcell receptor (TcR) a and p nucleotide sequences involved in the human autoreactivity to myelin basic protein (MBP) were studied by scre
Recent studies have suggested that the T4 molecule may bind to class I1 major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene products on target cells. Such an interaction could be with either a polymorphic or monomorphic determinant on class I1 MHC genes. The first would imply that T4 is structurally variabl
