Description:
The primary immunological function of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecules is to bind and "present" antigenic peptides on the surfaces of cells for recognition (binding) by the antigen-specific T cell receptors (TCRs) of lymphocytes. Differential structural properties of MHC class I and class II molecules account for their respective roles in activating different populations of T lymphocytes. Cytotoxic lymphocytes bind antigenic peptides presented by MHC class I molecules, whereas helper lymphocytes bind antigenic peptides presented by MHC class II molecules.
