What is the role of the proteasome in MHC class I peptide loading?
The proteasome cleaves intracellular proteins into small peptides of varying lengths.
2
New cards
How do cytokines influence the proteasome during an inflammatory response?
Cytokines can induce the formation of the immunoproteasome, which enhances MHC class I presentation.

New cards
What is the function of the 11S subunit in the immunoproteasome?
The 11S subunit aids in processing MHC class I molecules.
4
New cards
What is the role of β subunits in the immunoproteasome?
β subunits generate peptides that are 8 to 10 amino acids long, which are optimal for MHC class I binding.
