Supplementary information

HLA-B27 also known as Human Leukocyte Antigen-B27 is a specific allele of the HLA-B gene. This protein is part of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules which play a role in the immune system by presenting peptide antigens to T cells. HLA-B27 has an approximate molecular weight of 44 kDa. It is expressed on the surface of most nucleated cells particularly on immune cells. The allele is well-studied for its association with certain inflammatory diseases.
Biological function summary

HLA-B27 presents peptides derived from intracellular proteins enabling cytotoxic T-lymphocytes to recognize and respond to pathogens or damaged cells. It forms a complex with beta-2 microglobulin and peptide antigens facilitating antigen presentation. The HLA-B27 antigen-presenting complex plays a role in immune surveillance by maintaining immune system recognition of foreign peptides and altered self-peptides.

Pathways

HLA-B27 is integral in the antigen processing and presentation pathway. This pathway involves the proteasome TAP transporters and other MHC class I molecules. The protein interacts with molecules like HLA-A and HLA-C within this pathway which also play similar roles in immune surveillance and response. These interactions ensure an effective immune response against intracellular pathogens.

HLA-B27 shows a strong association with ankylosing spondylitis and other spondyloarthropathies. Ankylosing spondylitis is a form of chronic inflammatory arthritis that affects the spine and large joints. In continued research HLA-B27-positive individuals demonstrate increased susceptibility to these disorders. The mechanisms might involve interactions with specific peptide antigens causing inappropriate immune responses. Related proteins such as anti-HLA-ABC FITC can assist in studying and identifying those cells presenting the HLA-B27 antigen aiding in diagnoses.

Target data

Antigen-presenting major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI) molecule. In complex with B2M/beta 2 microglobulin displays primarily viral and tumor-derived peptides on antigen-presenting cells for recognition by alpha-beta T cell receptor (TCR) on HLA-B-restricted CD8-positive T cells, guiding antigen-specific T cell immune response to eliminate infected or transformed cells (PubMed : 23209413, PubMed : 25808313, PubMed : 29531227, PubMed : 9620674). May also present self-peptides derived from the signal sequence of secreted or membrane proteins, although T cells specific for these peptides are usually inactivated to prevent autoreactivity (PubMed : 18991276, PubMed : 7743181). Both the peptide and the MHC molecule are recognized by TCR, the peptide is responsible for the fine specificity of antigen recognition and MHC residues account for the MHC restriction of T cells (PubMed : 24600035, PubMed : 29531227, PubMed : 9620674). Typically presents intracellular peptide antigens of 8 to 13 amino acids that arise from cytosolic proteolysis via constitutive proteasome and IFNG-induced immunoproteasome (PubMed : 23209413). Can bind different peptides containing allele-specific binding motifs, which are mainly defined by anchor residues at position 2 and 9 (PubMed : 25808313, PubMed : 29531227).. Allele B*07 : 02 : Displays peptides sharing a common signature motif, namely a Pro residue at position 2 and mainly a Leu anchor residue at the C-terminus (PubMed : 7743181). Presents a long peptide (APRGPHGGAASGL) derived from the cancer-testis antigen CTAG1A/NY-ESO-1, eliciting a polyclonal CD8-positive T cell response against tumor cells (PubMed : 29531227). Presents viral epitopes derived from HIV-1 gag-pol (TPQDLNTML) and Nef (RPQVPLRPM) (PubMed : 25808313). Presents an immunodominant epitope derived from SARS-CoV-2 N/nucleoprotein (SPRWYFYYL) (PubMed : 32887977). Displays self-peptides including a peptide derived from the signal sequence of HLA-DPB1 (APRTVALTA) (PubMed : 7743181).. Allele B*08 : 01 : Presents to CD8-positive T cells viral epitopes derived from EBV/HHV-4 EBNA3 (QAKWRLQTL), eliciting cytotoxic T cell response.. Allele B*13 : 02 : Presents multiple HIV-1 epitopes derived from gag (RQANFLGKI, GQMREPRGSDI), nef (RQDILDLWI), gag-pol (RQYDQILIE, GQGQWTYQI) and rev (LQLPPLERL), all having in common a Gln residue at position 2 and mainly hydrophobic amino acids Leu, Ile or Val at the C-terminus. Associated with succesful control of HIV-1 infection.. Allele B*18 : 01 : Preferentially presents octomeric and nonameric peptides sharing a common motif, namely a Glu at position 2 and Phe or Tyr anchor residues at the C-terminus (PubMed : 14978097, PubMed : 18991276, PubMed : 23749632). Presents an EBV/HHV-4 epitope derived from BZLF1 (SELEIKRY) (PubMed : 23749632). May present to CD8-positive T cells an antigenic peptide derived from MAGEA3 (MEVDPIGHLY), triggering an anti-tumor immune response (PubMed : 12366779). May display a broad repertoire of self-peptides with a preference for peptides derived from RNA-binding proteins (PubMed : 14978097).. Allele B*27 : 05 : Presents to CD8-positive T cells immunodominant viral epitopes derived from HCV POLG (ARMILMTHF), HIV-1 gag (KRWIILGLNK), IAV NP (SRYWAIRTR), SARS-CoV-2 N/nucleoprotein (QRNAPRITF), EBV/HHV-4 EBNA4 (HRCQAIRKK) and EBV/HHV-4 EBNA6 (RRIYDLIEL), conferring longterm protection against viral infection (PubMed : 15113903, PubMed : 18385228, PubMed : 19139562, PubMed : 32887977, PubMed : 9620674). Can present self-peptides derived from cytosolic and nuclear proteins. All peptides carry an Arg at position 2 (PubMed : 1922338). The peptide-bound form interacts with NK cell inhibitory receptor KIR3DL1 and inhibits NK cell activation in a peptide-specific way, being particularly sensitive to the nature of the amino acid side chain at position 8 of the antigenic peptide (PubMed : 15657948, PubMed : 8879234). KIR3DL1 fails to recognize HLA-B*27 : 05 in complex with B2M and EBV/HHV-4 EBNA6 (RRIYDLIEL) peptide, which can lead to increased activation of NK cells during infection (PubMed : 15657948). May present an altered repertoire of peptides in the absence of TAP1-TAP2 and TAPBPL (PubMed : 9620674)..

Displays self-peptides sharing a signature motif, namely a Glu at position 2 and a Leu anchor residue at the C-terminus (PubMed : 18991276)..

Displays self-peptides sharing a signature motif, namely a Glu at position 2 and Phe, Tyr or Trp anchor residues at the C-terminus (PubMed : 18991276).. Allele B*45 : 01 : Displays self-peptides sharing a signature motif, namely a Glu at position 2 and Ala or Pro anchor residues at the C-terminus.. Allele B*46 : 01 : Preferentially presents nonameric peptides sharing a signature motif, namely Ala and Leu at position 2 and Tyr, Phe, Leu, or Met anchor residues at the C-terminus. The peptide-bound form interacts with KIR2DL3 and inhibits NK cell cytotoxic response in a peptide-specific way.. Allele B*47 : 01 : Displays self-peptides sharing a signature motif, namely an Asp at position 2 and Leu or Met anchor residues at the C-terminus..
