Reconstitution of antigen presentation in HLA class I-negative cancer cells with peptide-beta2m fusion molecules.

Engineered MHC-peptide targets capable of inducing recognition by CTL may prove useful in designing vaccines for infectious disease and cancer. We tested whether peptides directly linked to beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) could complex with human HLA class I heavy chain, and could be recognized by huma...
