Citrullination only infrequently impacts peptide binding to HLA class II MHC.

Citrullination only infrequently impacts peptide binding to HLA class II MHC.

It has been hypothesized that HLA class II alleles associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) preferentially present self-antigens altered by post-translational modification, such as citrullination. To understand the role of citrullination we tested four RA-associated citrullinated epitopes and their...
