OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
MHC class I-peptide complexes are usually stable for hours or even days. We have found that small molecules – for example certain dipeptides – that bind into the F pocket can dramatically accelerate peptide dissociation and replacement with exogenous peptides. This works on recombinant class I molecules, where the technology can be used to rapidly manufacture MHC multimers for T cell staining, and on cell surfaces, from which peptides can now be natively eluted.
