Pathogen-derived HLA-E bound epitopes reveal broad primary anchor pocket tolerability and conformationally malleable peptide binding

Human leucocyte antigen E (HLA-E) directly engages NK cells but also presents antigen to CD8+ T cells. Here the authors show crystal structures of HLA-E in complex with peptides derived from HIV and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and describe binding conformations, the positional impact of residues inv...
