Cytoplasmic Tail-Dependent Localization of CD1b Antigen-Presenting Molecules to MIICs

Abstract: CD1 proteins have been implicated as antigen-presenting molecules for T cell-mediated immune responses, but their intracellular localization and trafficking remain uncharacterized. CD1b, a member of this family that presents microbial lipid antigens of exogenous origin, was found to localize to endocytic compartments that included the same specialized subset of endosomes in which major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules are proposed to bind endocytosed antigens. Unlike MHC class II molecules, … Show more

“…Interestingly, this result parallels reported findings for a chimeric mouse MHC class II protein with a GPI anchor, which also demonstrated a significantly diminished ability to present Ags to restricted T cells (15). In fact, both CD1b and MHC class II molecules may load Ags in the same types of late endosomal compartments (13). Late endosomes are thought to possess a milieu amenable to the loading of CD1b with Ags, given their acidic pH and the presence of CD1b-binding Ags (11,13,14,30).…”

“…Recent experimental evidence suggests that the cytoplasmic domains of CD1 proteins influence their Ag-presenting functions by directing their distribution within the cell (11)(12)(13)27). For human CD1b and mouse CD1d1, deletion of the targeting motif disrupts .…”

“…In contrast, freshly isolated monocytes do not, or only occasionally, express CD1a, -b and -c ( [7,18] It is possible that the CD1 molecules, rather than acting as APC might function as cell-surface receptors, bringing exogenous antigens into the MHC class II compartment followed by MHC class II-mediated presentation of TT and PPD to T cells. CD1b molecules have been found in endosomal structures, predominantly in late endosomes, where they are co-localized with class II molecules [21,22]. Some recent data also indicates that mouse CD1 traf®cs to endosomal compartments where it can bind peptides derived from processed proteins [23].…”

“…Kawano and colleagues showed that chloroquine and concanamycin A, that prevent acidi®cation of and transportation to late endosomes, respectively, could inhibit presentation of aGalCer by dendritic cells [31], thus indicating a requirement for endosomal processing pathways. Further, CD1 has been found preferentially localized to the acidic endosomal compartments, including MHC class II-containing compartments (MIIC) [39,40]. Because B cells but not T cells express MHC class II, the presentation of exogenous aGalCer on A20 CD1 transfectants is expected to be more ef®cient.…”
