Comments |
"In mammalian cells,
some of these peptides are utilized in antigen presentation,
possibly after further proteolytic processing to the final 8–9-
residue peptides presented on the cell surface (primary source)...Analogous studies of product size with eukaryotic proteasomes
are also of particular interest because of their role in generating
the 8–9-residue peptides used in MHC class 1 antigen
presentation (primary source)." Note-value of 8 - 10 residues given by PMID 11350924 p.2357 left column bottom paragraph |
