Investigator Grants
Grant Activity:
Immunity mediated by MHC class I-related protein (MR1)
Purpose:
Immune T cells react to molecular changes in cells during infection revealed by antigen-presenting molecules that constantly sample molecular patterns. MR1 is a newly discovered Ag presentation molecule involved in microbial immunity, but new evidence indicates that MR1 can present unique molecules from cancer cells driving T cell immunity. This proposal seeks to understand this process to harness a new arm of immunity amenable to development of novel anti-tumour vaccines and immunotherapy.
