Presentation of peptide epitopes derived from beta-cell autoantigens, such as insulin and its precursor molecules, by MHC class II molecules to autoreactive T-cells is believed to play a role in the development of Type 1 diabetes. However, little is known about the interaction between peptides of (prepro)insulin and MHC class II molecules permissive and protective for Type 1 diabetes. In this study therefore, peptides spanning the human preproinsulin sequence were assessed for their binding characteristics to Type 1 diabetes-protective and -permissive HLA molecules.
