Allele-specific B pocket transplant in class I major histocompatibility complex protein changes requirement for anchor residue at P2 of peptide.

To investigate the role of an anchoring pocket in allele-specific peptide presentation by a major histocompatibility complex class I molecule, we "transplanted" a B pocket from HLA-A*0201 into HLA-B*2705 by site-directed mutagenesis. The resulting protein, designated B27.A2B, binds a diffe...
