http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/20833718http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Very small amounts of MHC class II-peptide complexes expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are capable of stimulating antigen-specific CD4 T cells. There is intense interest to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which these small amounts of MHC-II can cluster, cross-link T cell receptors, and promote T cell proliferation. We now demonstrate that a significant fraction of the total pool of MHC-II molecules on the surface of dendritic cells is physically associated in macromolecular aggregates. These MHC-II/MHC-II interactions have been probed by co-immunoprecipitation analysis of the MHC-II I-A molecule with the related I-E molecule. These molecular associations are maintained in gentle detergents but are disrupted in harsh detergents such as Triton X-100. MHC-II I-A/I-E interactions are disrupted when plasma membrane cholesterol is extracted using methyl β-cyclodextrin, suggesting that lipid raft microdomains are important mediators of these MHC-II interactions. Although it has been proposed that tetraspanin proteins regulate molecular clustering, aggregation, and co-immunoprecipitation in APCs, genetic deletion of the tetraspanin family members CD9 or CD81 had no effect on MHC-II I-A/I-E binding. These data demonstrate that the presence of distinct forms of MHC-II with plasma membrane lipid rafts is required for MHC-II aggregation in APCs and provides a molecular mechanism allowing dendritic cells expressing small amounts of MHC-II-peptide complexes to cross-link and stimulate CD4 T cells."xsd:string
