    Abstract T cell hybridomas were raised against the glycopeptide S(72) (Core-1) containing the tumor-associated disaccharide betaGal (1-3) alphaGalNAc (Core-1) O-linked to serine at position 72 in the mouse hemoglobin derived decapeptide Hb (67-76). All hybridomas recognized the glycopeptide S(72) (Core-1). Two of the selected hybridomas responded, however, much better to the S(72) (Tn) glycopeptide containing the monosaccharide alphaGalNAc O-linked to serine. In addition, one hybridoma cross-responded to the glycopeptide T(72) (Core-1) having a threonine at position 72 instead of a serine. No cross-responses were found to other glycopeptides consisting of the same hemoglobin peptide with different glycans attached or to the unglycosylated peptides. The T cell receptor Valpha and Vbeta usage was clearly diverse. The CDR3alpha regions demonstrated moreover a predominance of small polar amino acid side chains, and three hybridomas contained a common sequence motif. All the sequenced CDR3beta regions contained furthermore a conserved proline-glycine motif. In conclusion, immunization with the disaccharide containing glycopeptides S(72) (Core-1) created a heterogeneous population of glycopeptide specific T cells with the ability of cross-responding toward related glycopeptides.

    Abstract MHC class II E(k)-restricted, IL-2 secreting T cell hybridomas were raised against the synthetic glycopeptide Hb(67-76)-alpha-GalNAc, (T72(Tn)), in CBA/J mice (H-2(k)). The fine specificity of the hybridomas against the glycan moiety was investigated by testing their response against a panel of Hb(67-76)-derived glycopeptides, all with a glycan attached to serine or threonine at the position 72 in the peptide, but with different glycans. The hybridomas showed a high degree of specificity for the alpha-GalNAc moiety with few and faint cross-responses to the glycopeptides having other glycans attached even though some of these were structurally very similar to alpha-GalNAc. The fine specificity of the hybridomas for the peptide moiety was investigated by testing their responses to a panel of Hb(67-76)-alpha-GalNAc glycopeptides with alanine substitutions at all positions except at the two MHC binding anchor positions, I68 and K76, and the T72 to which the alpha-GalNAc was attached. Glycopeptides substituted with alanine at positions where the amino acid side chain pointed toward the TCR did not stimulate the hybridomas, whereas glycopeptides substituted with alanine at positions orientated down into the MHC binding groove stimulated many of the hybridomas. These results indicate that the glycan attached to the peptide as well as solvent-accessible parts of the peptide are recognized with a high degree of specificity by the T cells, whereas the parts of the peptide buried in the MHC binding site are less important or totally ignored by the T cells.

    Abstract Large foreign protein antigens are processed in antigen presenting cells before they can be recognized by T lymphocytes. The processing involves the ingestion of the antigen, a controlled proteolytic fragmentation, and the association of immunogenic fragments with MHC class II molecules. The processing provides for exposure to the T lymphocytes of the immune system of epitopes which are buried in the interior of globular protein. Here we argue that autologous molecules (i.e., autoantigens) are also processed and that this applies to intracellular molecules as well as to plasma membrane proteins and tissues and serum proteins. The implication is that autoimmune T lymphocytes recognize fragments of self molecules in the context of MHC molecules and that autotolerance is toward these same epitopes.

    Abstract It is a central dogma of contemporary immunology that T cells engaged in immune responses to foreign antigens or cells recognize determinants on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Here Ole Werdelin argues that this dogma is false. Taking the case of T-cell responses which are controlled by MHC class II molecules, he suggests that la molecules serve to bind antigen fragments and stabilize them in the membrane of presenting cells, shielding them from proteolytic degradation and permitting T cells to bind the epitopes so displayed.

    Abstract Immune responsiveness of guinea pigs to dinitrophenyl-poly-L-lysine (DNP-PLL) and to the lysine-rich random copolymer of L-glutamic acid and L-lysine (GL) are both controlled by the "poly-L-lysine gene." We demonstrate that accessory cells of responder strains can be made incapable of presenting DNP-PLL to response T cells in assays for proliferation by in vitro exposure of the cells to GL before and during their exposure to DNP-PLL. The inhibition was not rapidly reversible, because GL preexposed accessory cells that were cultured for 2 hr in GL-free medium were still refractory to pulsing with DNP-PLL. In contrast, DNP-PLL had only a moderate inhibitory effect on accessory cell presentation of GL. Unconjugated poly- and oligo-lysines also inhibited the ability of accessory cells to present DNP-PLL, but inhibitory activity was displayed only by homopolymers containing eight to 12 or more residues in the chain. The homopolymers of D-lysine, L-arginine, and L-glutamic acid, and lysine-free glutamic acid-rich copolymers had little or no inhibitory effect. The results are interpreted to mean that antigens to which responsiveness is regulated by the same Ir gene compete for presentation by accessory cells. This may reflect a competition for the Ir gene product of the antigen-presenting cell.
