Structural analysis of mycobacterial and murine hsp60 epitopes in complex with the class I MHC molecule H-2Db.

FEBS Lett. (2003) 543, 11-5 [doi:10.1016/s0014-5793(03)00325-9] [pubmed:12753896]

The decameric peptide SALQNAASIA from the Mycobacterium bovis heat shock protein (hsp) 60 is recognized by the murine T-cell receptor UZ-3-4 in complex with the murine class I major histocompatibility complex molecule H-2D(b). This T-cell receptor cross-reacts with the H-2D(b)-bound non-homologous decameric peptide KDIGNIISDA from the murine hsp60, but does not recognize the nonameric mycobacterial peptide SALQNAASI. Cross-recognition of the KDIGNIISDA/H-2D(b) complex induces autoimmune pathology in immunodeficient mice. We solved the X-ray crystal structure of the SALQNAASIA/H-2D(b) complex at 3.0 A resolution, and we modelled the KDIGNIISDA and SALQNAASI peptides in the H-2D(b) binding site. The structural analysis of the H-2D(b)-bound hsp60 epitopes offers insight into T-cell receptor cross-reactivity.

Data provenance

MHC:peptide complexes are visualised using PyMol. The peptide is superimposed on a consistent cutaway slice of the MHC binding cleft (displayed as a grey mesh) which best indicates the binding pockets for the P1/P5/PC positions (side view - pockets A, E, F) and for the P2/P3/PC-2 positions (top view - pockets B, C, D). In some cases peptides will use a different pocket for a specific peptide position (atypical anchoring). On some structures the peptide may appear to sterically clash with a pocket. This is an artefact of picking a standardised slice of the cleft and overlaying the peptide.

Data provenance

Neighbours are calculated by finding residues with atoms within 5Å of each other using BioPython Neighboursearch module. The list of neighbours is then sorted and filtered to inlcude only neighbours where between the peptide and the MHC Class I alpha chain.

Data provenance

N-/C-terminus and peptide backbone binding residues are assigned according to previously published information and pockets are assigned according to an adaptation of a previously published set of residues. All numbering is currently that of the 'canonical' structures of human and mouse MHC Class I molecules.

3. Peptide	SALQNAASIA

Data provenance

Sequences are retrieved via the Uniprot method of the RSCB REST API. Sequences are then compared to those derived from the PDB file and matched against sequences retrieved from the IPD-IMGT/HLA database for human sequences, or the IPD-MHC database for other species. Mouse sequences are matched against FASTA files from Uniprot. Sequences for the mature extracellular protein (signal petide and cytoplasmic tail removed) are compared to identical length sequences from the datasources mentioned before using either exact matching or Levenshtein distance based matching.
