How do the peptide binding sites of MHC class 1 and class 2 molecules differ?
Why is the lysosomal degradation step crucial in the MHC class 2 antigen presentation pathway?
Why is understanding MHC and antigen presentation crucial for developing effective vaccines?
Which cells are primarily activated by MHC class 1 molecules?
What is the function of beta-2 microglobulin in MHC class 1 molecules?
