Functional Analysis of the Thiol Oxidoreductase ERp57 and its Role in the Biogenesis of MHC Class I Molecules

Class I major histocompatibility complex molecules present antigenic peptides to cytotoxic T lymphocytes, which leads to the elimination of virus infected cells. Class I molecules are heterotrimers consisting of a heavy chain, a light chain termed beta2-microglobulin, and a peptide ligand. Assembly...
