  1. Figure 1-30 Cytotoxic CD8 T cells recognize antigen presented by class I MHC proteins CD8 is a T cell coreceptor that binds to class I MHC molecules. CD8 TCR class I MHC

  2. Class II MHC proteins

  3. Peptides that bind to class II MHC molecules are longer than class I MHC-binding peptides

  4. Figure 3-19 Expression of MHC class I versus class II proteins Class I MHC molecules are expressed on nearly all cells in your body.Class II MHC molecules are expressed on a subset of your cells -- mainly antigen presenting cells and B cells.Human class II MHC molecules are encoded by three loci: HLA-DR, HLA-DP, and HLA-DQ. Like class I MHC, there are hundreds of possible alleles in the human population for each type of class II MHC protein.

  5. Figure 1-31 CD4 TH (T helper) cells activate macrophages or activate B cells to make antibody by recognizing antigen bound to class II MHC proteins CD4 is a T cell coreceptor that binds to class II MHC molecules. TH2 CD4 CD4 TCR TCR class II MHC class II MHC Levels of CD4 T cells are severely reduced in AIDS patients.

  6. What does it mean that CD4 T cells “help” B cells make antibody and how are class II MHC molecules involved? Antigen (peptide) is presented by MHC class II on an APC to a CD4 TH cell with a TCR that recognizes a particular MHC class II/peptide complex. The TH cell is stimulated to undergo clonal expansion. If it encounters a B cell with the same class II/MHC peptide complex on its surface, it stimulates that B cell to clonally expand and produce soluble antibody.

  7. Antigen presenting cells (APCs): can uptake any Ag because uptake is not receptor mediated. • B cells: mainly uptake only Ags that bind to B cell receptor (membrane Ig) -- result: TH only helps B cells that will make Ab against relevant Ag. • Explains hapten-carrier effect.

  8. Clicker question In Douglas Adam’s famous novel Ultimate Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything (a sequel to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy), a computer named Deep Thought is constructed in order to determine the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything. After seven and half million years of calculations, the computer answers: 1) “Quoting one is plagiarism. Quoting many is research.” 2) “All generalizations are false.” 3) “Common sense isn't.” “42.” “I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.” “43% of all statistics are useless.”

  10. If you remember that the ultimate answer to life is “42”, you will remember that: CD4 T cells recognize class II MHC proteins.If you remember that you are 18 (or at least some of the freshman in Bi1 are 18), you will remember that: CD8 T cells recognize class I MHC proteins

  11. Remember this: CD8 (T cell coreceptor and name for a class of T cells) Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) or killer T cell Class I MHC protein (HLA-A; HLA-B; HLA-C) Binds peptides derived from endogenous proteins CD4 (T cell coreceptor and name for a class of T cells)Helper T cell (TH) (further sub-divided into TH1 and TH2)Class II MHC protein (HLA-DR; HLA-DP; HLA-DQ) Binds peptides derived from exogenous proteins HIV infects CD4 T cells.

  12. Figure 3-11 A T-cell receptor (TCR) looks like a membrane-bound version of an antibody Fab

  13. TCR diversity • Junctional diversity -- combinatorial joining of gene segments, similar to antibody V,D,J • TCR a chains: V and J gene segments (like Ig light chains) • TCR b chains: V, D, and J gene segments (like Ig heavy chains) • Imprecise joining of V-J, V-D, and D-J • Combinatorial association of protein subunits (any a with any b) • NO SOMATIC MUTATION • Why?TH cells help B cells. B cell clones exist with anti-self antibody, but are not helped because TH cell is either eliminated or inactivated. If TCRs could undergo somatic mutation, they might mutate to have anti-self reactivity.

Which portion of the MHC molecule are the antibodies likely to recognize? Polymorphic Less polymorphic or non-polymorphic

  18. T cell co-receptors • CD8 binds to MHC class I proteins. CD8 T cells are cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) or killer T cells. • CD4 binds to MHC class II proteins. CD4 T cells are “helper” T cells. • Two distinct functions of T cell co-receptors: Adhesion molecules - bind to appropriate MHC molecule (class I versus class II) on antigen presenting cell or infected cell and increase efficiency of antigen recognitionSignaling molecules - transduce signal as part of activation pathway

  19. Clicker question CD4 and CD8 bind to class II and class I MHC molecules, respectively. Which part of an MHC/peptide complex are they likely to recognize? 1) The bound peptide 2) The a-helices on the peptide binding groove 3) The non-polymorphic membrane-proximal domains Polymorphic Less polymorphic or non-polymorphic

  20. Unlike T cell receptors, CD4 and CD8 do NOT recognize peptides bound to MHC proteins Both co-receptors bind to a non-polymorphic region of an MHC protein distant from the peptide-binding site. CD4 binds to ALL class II MHC/peptide complexes. CD8 binds to ALL class I MHC/peptide complexes

  23. CD4 also binds to HIV gp120, a component of the trimeric HIV envelope spike. This is a crystal structure of gp120 bound to CD4 and a Fab from an anti-gp120 antibody. All current crystal structures are of monomeric gp120. Kwong et al., 1998, Nature 393: 648-659

  24. Clicker question • Which is true? • 1) Class II MHC  CD8 T cells  killer • 2) Class II MHC  CD4 T cells  helper • 3) Class I MHC  CD4 T cells  helper • 4) Class III MHC  CD8 T cells  cytotoxic • 5) Class III MHC  CD2 T cells  helpful

  28. T cell receptor complex • TCR ab chains are variable -- recognize MHC plus peptide • CD3 chains are invariable -- involved in signaling • TCR ab associates with CD3 in the membrane of a T cell

  29. Cloning of TCR genes Cloning strategy based on the following assumptions: • TCRs should be expressed in T cells, but not in B cells • Messenger RNAs for TCRs will be found on membrane-bound polysomes • Genes encoding TCR should rearrange (like antibody genes) • TCR genes should have constant and variable regions.

  30. Subtractive hybridization to clone TCR • Make library of T cell specific cDNAs (subtract out those cDNAs also expressed in B cells). • Make labeled cDNA as probe (made from membrane-bound poly(A)+ RNA). • Pull out T cell specific clones from library. • Look for rearrangement -- Southern blot genomic DNA from T cells versus cells in germline configuration (from non-immune cells).

  33. What does it mean for a T cell to “help” a B cell make antibody and how are class II MHC molecules involved? To understand the answer to this question, you need to know that: Class II MHC molecules on antigen presenting cells acquire peptides from exogenous* proteins. Exogenous proteins taken into antigen presenting cells end up in degradative compartments (endosomes, lysosomes) where they are cut up into peptides. Class II MHC molecules on B cells acquire peptides from exogenous proteins that bind to their B cell receptor (membrane bound antibody). These are taken into the cell by receptor-mediated endocytosis, and they end up in degradative compartments (endosomes, lysosomes) where they are cut up into peptides. Stimulating a B cell to make antibody takes three types of cells: B cells, T cells, Antigen presenting cells. *Exogenous: derived from outside of the cell. Opposite of “endogenous”. MHC class I molecules acquire peptides derived from endogenous proteins (e.g., viral proteins) produced inside a cell.

  34. HEAVY LIGHT Potential diversity in TCRs versus Abs TCR diversity is heavily skewed towards junctional regions (CDR3). 1988, Nature 334, 395-402. # of junctional combinations affects the number of possible CDR3 sequences. # of variable region combinations affects the number of possible CDR1 and CDR2 sequences.

  35. Model for TCR binding to MHC/peptide complex Top view of peptide binding site of a class I MHC molecule. MHC helices are yellow; peptide is pink. CDR3 regions (pink) are in the center, CDR1 and CDR2 (yellow and blue) are on the sides. The most variable part of a TCR is at the center of the combining site. The most variable part of an MHC/peptide complex is the peptide. CDR3 CDR3
