Regulation of the cell surface expression of classical and non-classical MHC proteins by the human cytomegalovirus UL40 and rhesus cytomegalovirus Rh67 proteins
S. Brackenridge, P. Borrow, A. McMichael
This paper shows that UL40 and Rh67 proteins from CMV replace endogenous VL9 peptides to up-regulate MHC-E expression, enabling immune evasion by NK cells.
