Abstract The structure of the A6 alphabetaTCR/HTLV-1 Tax-peptide/MHC I complex with proline 6 of Tax substituted with alanine (P6A), an antagonist, is nearly identical to the structure with wild-type Tax agonist. Neither the proline in the agonist nor the alanine in the antagonist is contacted by the alphabetaTCR. Here, we demonstrate that antagonist activity of P6A is associated with low affinity of the A6 alphabetaTCR for Tax-P6A/HLA-A2. We show that stepwise repair of a packing defect in the TCR/MHC interface using N-alkylated amino acids results in stepwise increases in TCR affinity and activity. Kinetic and thermodynamic measurements suggest that for some ligands the range of T cell outcomes does not correlate with either their alphabetaTCR affinity or the half-life of the alphabetaTCR/peptide/MHC complex.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
  • Location: The source of the research data.
