11. MHC and Transgenic Mice. A study into polymorphism and function of class I and class II molecules
Sammanfattning : Transplantation antigens encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) bind peptides and present them to T cells. We showed that mouse T cells expressing transgenic human CD8 can recognise human MHC class I. LÄS MER
12. Structural insights into glycoprotein transport and viral escape
Sammanfattning : The correct trafficking of proteins through the secretory pathway is essential for the maintenance of cellular functions. Increasing evidence suggests that at least for some glycoproteins, export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is mediated by interaction with cargo receptors. LÄS MER
13. The use of molecular techniques for identification of genetic divergence in transplantation : with special reference to MHC genes and HLA typing
Sammanfattning : Transplantation immunology basically deals with the immune mechanisms that lead to rejection of transplanted tissues. Lymphocytes are the key mediators of graft rejection. At the time for this observation, the genetic loci responsible for histocompatibility between individuals of the same species were already identified in the mouse. LÄS MER
14. The quality control of MHC class I antigen presentation
Sammanfattning : Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules present antigenic peptides to CD8+ T cells. The peptides are generated by proteasomes in the cytosol, then translocated across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). LÄS MER
15. MHC and genomic diversity in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
Sammanfattning : In this thesis I present studies concerning genomic diversity and genetic heterogeneity as well as the evolution and maintenance of genetic variation at a specific immune defence gene in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.). LÄS MER
