Abstract
MHC class I H-2Ld complexed with peptide QL9 (or p2Ca) is a high-affinity alloantigen for the 2C TCR. We used the crystal structure of H-2Ld with a mixture of bound peptides at 3.1 A to construct a model of the allogeneic 2C-Ld/QL9 complex for comparison with the syngeneic 2C-Kb/dEV8 structure. A prominent ridge on the floor of the Ld peptide-binding groove, not present in Kb, creates a C-terminal bulge in Ld peptides that greatly increases interactions with the 2C beta-chain. Furthermore, weak electrostatic complementarity between Asp77 on the alpha1 helix of Kb and 2C is enhanced in the allogeneic complex by closer proximity of QL9 peptide residue AspP8 to the 2C HV4 loop.

Figure 1. Ribbon Diagram of and Peptide Binding Groove Electron Density in the H-2L^d Crystal Structure(A) Ribbon diagram of the H-2L^d crystal structure viewed along the peptide-binding groove. The peptide N-terminus is shown oriented toward the viewer. (B) The peptide electron density in the H-2L^d crystal structure. The σ[A]-weighted 2F[o]-F[c] electron density is viewed with the peptide (APAAAAAAM) N-terminus on the right to show the effect of the large polymorphic residues (e.g., Trp73, Trp97, Tyr99) on the peptide conformation. Residues below the peptide from three of the α[1]α[2] domain β-strands and β[2]m (Trp60) form the bottom of the peptide-binding groove. The map is contoured at 1.5σ with a cover radius of 2.5 Å applied.

Figure 2. Structure Comparison of Selected Class I MHC-Bound PeptidesThe MHC allele and peptide sequence are given above the corresponding model. The peptides were superimposed (bottom) by aligning only the α[1]α[2] C^α atoms of the MHC molecules. The L^d tube diameter is enlarged in this superimposition for clarity. The K^b peptide (dEV8) is one residue shorter (P1–P8) than the others (P1–P9).

Full text Abstract
Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Structure of the 2C-H-2Kb-dEV8 complex. (A) Overall backbone structure of one entire TCR-pMHC complex [only one of^ the two complexes in the asymmetric unit of the crystal is shown (26)]. The TCR is on top ( chain pink, chain light blue, CDR1[ ]magenta, CDR2[ ]purple, CDR3[ ]yellow, CDR1[ ]cyan, CDR2[ ]navy blue, CDR3[ ]green, HV4 orange). The pMHC^ is on the bottom (MHC heavy chain is green, [2]-microglobulin ( [2]M) is dark green, peptide is yellow with side chains shown). (B) Close-up of the TCR-pMHC interface showing all side chains involved^ in intermolecular contacts, and hydrogen bonds are indicated. (C) Molecular surfaces of the interacting TCR, peptide, and MHC with backbones and side chains visible through the transparent surface. All figures were produced with Advanced Visual System (AVS) software, and surfaces were calculated with PQMS (25).

Fig. 3. Peptide-TCR interactions in the TCR-pMHC interface. In the left two panels, a stereo pair of the backbone and side chains of the TCR-pMHC interface are shown emphasizing the 2C interactions with the NH[2]-terminal P1 (A), middle P4 (B), and^ COOH-terminal P6-P7 (C) positions of the bound dEV8 peptide. In the companion panels to the far right, sliced molecular surfaces of the region shown in the left panels highlight the relatively poor complementarity of the peptide-TCR interaction. Large empty gaps in the TCR-pMHC interface are evident in the molecular surface^ representations. The TCR is shown in pink, the MHC in green, the^ peptide in yellow, and water molecules in blue.
