Abstract
The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is a model species for amphibians. Before metamorphosis, tadpoles do not efficiently express the single classical MHC class I (MHC-I) molecule Xela-UAA, but after metamorphosis, adults express this molecule in abundance. To elucidate the Ag-presenting mechanism of Xela-UAA, in this study, the Xela-UAA structure complex (pXela-UAAg) bound with a peptide from a synthetic random peptide library was...
