ER STRESS AFFECTS PROCESSING OF MHC CLASS I-ASSOCIATED PEPTIDES

ER stress affects processing of MHC class I-associated peptides

Abstract Background Viral infection and neoplastic transformation trigger endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.Thus, a large proportion of the cells that must be recognized by the immune system are stressed cells.Cells respond to ER stress by launching the unfolded protein response (UPR).The UPR regulates the two key processes that control major histo

Spot profile analysis and lifetime mapping in ultrafast electron diffraction: Lattice excitation of self-organized Ge nanostructures on Si(001)

Ultrafast high energy electron diffraction in reflection geometry is employed to study the structural dynamics of self-organized Germanium hut-, dome-, and relaxed clusters on Si(001) upon femtosecond laser excitation.Utilizing the difference in size and strain state the response of #TURNOUT SPUR hut- and dome clusters can be distinguished by a tra
