It is likely that different K+ channel subunits within the same family would provide the potential to generate many K +-channel tetramer combinations.
Since the knowledge of the Mamu-A*01-restricted epitopes [ 32][ 33] allows for a quantitation of the CD8+ T-cell response using the tetramer technology [ 34], Mamu-A*01 macaques were chosen for this study.
In recent cancer vaccine trials [3,4,5], many melanoma patients who received heteroclitic peptide vaccines gp100 209–217 (210M) (IMDQVPSFV; G209–2M) and MART 26–35 (27L) (ELAGIGILTV; M26) had measurable CD8+ peptide-specific T cell responses in PBMCs detected by peptide–MHC tetramer staining.
The bacterial K +channel KcsA, whose X-ray crystal structure has been solved and is definitively a tetramer [ 30 ] , runs as a tetramer on SDS gels [ 31 ] . Furthermore, mutations that disrupt a known intersubunit interface at the level of the pore disrupt this biochemical tetramerization.
Analysis of the crystal structure of GlpF suggests that potential ion binding sites may be located in the central pore, at the four-fold axis of symmetry in the tetrameric association of subunits that form the channel [ 15 ] . Interestingly, this arrangement of a tetramer of subunits to form a central ion pore is a hallmark of the family of voltage-gated ion channels [ 23 ] , which rely on a tetrameric organization to create a central pore for ions that is lined by sequences contributed from all four subunits.
