  1. Major Histocompatibility Complex - Class I HLA-A2 and Presentation of HERPES Viral Peptides Joshua Nord Lora Rapp Nathaniel Wanish Concordia University of Wisconsin

  2. Big Picture Human immune system - Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) - Viral peptide presentation Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I (MHC) -structure Human Herpesvirus-7

  3. Class I MHC Formation Synthesis Cnx = Calnexin HC = MHC α-chain Crt = Calreticulin Tpn = Tapasin

  4. U21 Down regulation of MHC Class I

  5. The Future X-ray crystallization of MHC & U21 Diversion of MHC to lysosomal compartments Alternate NK cell evasion

  6. MHC in the Classroom Model - interactions - anchor residues - peptide presentation
