Current models for T-cell recognition of foreign antigen depict the T-cell receptor as having a single antibody-like combining site which bindr a complex of MHC and antigen. An alternative hypothesis is presented here; it is proposed that the first domains of the MHC function as inverted V-like regi
The role of self-peptides in influencing the development of the T-cell repertoire has been the focus of recent studies. The findings suggest that the recognition of self-peptides bound to MHC proteins in the thymus is part of the thymic self-recognition process that results in selective maturation,
