HLA-C
geneOn this page
Summary
HLA-C (major histocompatibility complex, class I, C, HGNC:4933) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p21.33, encoding HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, C alpha chain (P10321). Antigen-presenting major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI) molecule with an important role in reproduction and antiviral immunity. In precision oncology, HLA-C COPY-NEUTRAL LOSS OF HETEROZYGOSITY is associated with resistance to Therapeutic Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes in Colorectal Cancer (CIViC Level C). It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 30.7% of cell lines).
HLA-C belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). The heavy chain is anchored in the membrane. Class I molecules play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from endoplasmic reticulum lumen. They are expressed in nearly all cells. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene contains 8 exons. Exon one encodes the leader peptide, exons 2 and 3 encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domain, which both bind the peptide, exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane region, and exons 6 and 7 encode the cytoplasmic tail. Polymorphisms within exon 2 and exon 3 are responsible for the peptide binding specificity of each class one molecule. Typing for these polymorphisms is routinely done for bone marrow and kidney transplantation. About 6000 HLA-C alleles have been described. The HLA system plays an important role in the occurrence and outcome of infectious diseases, including those caused by the malaria parasite, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV). The structural spike and the nucleocapsid proteins of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are reported to contain multiple Class I epitopes with predicted HLA restrictions. Individual HLA genetic variation may help explain different immune responses to a virus across a population.

Function. Antigen-presenting major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI) molecule with an important role in reproduction and antiviral immunity. In complex with B2M/beta 2 microglobulin displays a restricted repertoire of self and viral peptides and acts as a dominant ligand for inhibitory and activating killer immunoglobulin receptors (KIRs) expressed on NK cells. In an allogeneic setting, such as during pregnancy, mediates interaction of extravillous trophoblasts with KIR on uterine NK cells and regulate trophoblast invasion necessary for placentation and overall fetal growth. During viral infection, may present viral peptides with low affinity for KIRs, impeding KIR-mediated inhibition through peptide antagonism and favoring lysis of infected cells. Presents a restricted repertoire of viral peptides on antigen-presenting cells for recognition by alpha-beta T cell receptor (TCR) on HLA-C-restricted CD8-positive T cells, guiding antigen-specific T cell immune response to eliminate infected cells, particularly in chronic viral infection settings such as HIV-1 or CMV infection. Both the peptide and the MHC molecule are recognized by TCR, the peptide is responsible for the fine specificity of antigen recognition and MHC residues account for the MHC restriction of T cells. Typically presents intracellular peptide antigens of 9 amino acids that arise from cytosolic proteolysis via proteasome. Can bind different peptides containing allele-specific binding motifs, which are mainly defined by anchor residues at position 2 and 9. Preferentially displays peptides having a restricted repertoire of hydrophobic or aromatic amino acids (Phe, Ile, Leu, Met, Val and Tyr) at the C-terminal anchor. ALLELE C01:02: The peptide-bound form interacts with KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3 inhibitory receptors on NK cells. The low affinity peptides compete with the high affinity peptides impeding KIR-mediated inhibition and favoring lysis of infected cells. Presents to CD8-positive T cells a CMV epitope derived from UL83/pp65 (RCPEMISVL), an immediate-early antigen necessary for initiating viral replication. ALLELE C04:01: Presents a conserved HIV-1 epitope derived from env (SFNCGGEFF) to memory CD8-positive T cells, eliciting very strong IFNG responses. Presents CMV epitope derived from UL83/pp65 (QYDPVAALF) to CD8-positive T cells, triggering T cell cytotoxic response. ALLELE C05:01: Presents HIV-1 epitope derived from rev (SAEPVPLQL) to CD8-positive T cells, triggering T cell cytotoxic response. ALLELE C06:02: In trophoblasts, interacts with KIR2DS2 on uterine NK cells and triggers NK cell activation, including secretion of cytokines such as GMCSF that enhances trophoblast migration. ALLELE C07:02: Plays an important role in the control of chronic CMV infection. Presents immunodominant CMV epitopes derived from IE1 (LSEFCRVL and CRVLCCYVL) and UL28 (FRCPRRFCF), both antigens synthesized during immediate-early period of viral replication. Elicits a strong anti-viral CD8-positive T cell immune response that increases markedly with age. ALLELE C08:01: Presents viral epitopes derived from CMV UL83 (VVCAHELVC) and IAV M1 (GILGFVFTL), triggering CD8-positive T cell cytotoxic response. ALLELE C12:02: Presents CMV epitope derived from UL83 (VAFTSHEHF) to CD8-positive T cells. ALLELE C15:02: Presents CMV epitope derived from UL83 CC (VVCAHELVC) to CD8-positive T cells, triggering T cell cytotoxic response.
Subunit / interactions. Heterotrimer that consists of an alpha chain HLA-C, a beta chain B2M and a peptide (peptide-HLA-C-B2M). Early in biogenesis, HLA-C-B2M dimer interacts with the components of the peptide-loading complex composed of TAPBP, TAP1-TAP2, TAPBPL, PDIA3/ERP57 and CALR. Interacts with TAP1-TAP2 transporter via TAPBP; this interaction is obligatory for the loading of peptide epitopes delivered to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by TAP1-TAP2 transporter. Being very selective in the peptide binding, forms a stable interaction with TAP1-TAP2, often leading to the accumulation of free heavy chains in the ER. Only optimally assembled peptide-HLA-C-B2M trimer translocates to the surface of antigen-presenting cells, where it interacts with TCR and CD8 coreceptor on the surface of T cells. HLA-C (via polymorphic alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains) interacts with antigen-specific TCR (via CDR3 domains). One HLA-C molecule (mainly via nonpolymorphic alpha-3 domain) interacts with one CD8A homodimer (via CDR-like loop); this interaction ensures peptide-HLA-C-B2M recognition by CD8-positive T cells only. The peptide-HLA-C-B2M complex also interacts with KIRs. HLA-C type 1 (C1, with Asn104), including HLA-C02, C04, C05, C06 and C15, interact with KIR2DL1 and KIR2DS1, and HLA-C type 2 (C2, with Lys104), including HLA-C01, C03, C07 and C*08, interact with KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3. (Microbial infection) Interacts with HTLV-1 p12I accessory protein.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in fetal extravillous trophoblasts in the decidua basalis (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. N-linked glycosylation at Asn-110 is required for efficient interaction with CANX and CALR chaperones and appropriate HLA-C-B2M folded conformers prior to peptide loading.
Disease relevance. Psoriasis 1 (PSORS1) [MIM:177900] A common, chronic inflammatory disease of the skin with multifactorial etiology. It is characterized by red, scaly plaques usually found on the scalp, elbows and knees. These lesions are caused by abnormal keratinocyte proliferation and infiltration of inflammatory cells into the dermis and epidermis. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Allele C*06:02 presents a melanocyte autoantigen ADAMTSL5 (VRSRRCLRL) to Valpha3S1/Vbeta13S1 TCR on CD8-positive T cells, and may trigger an autoimmune response against melanocytes.
Domain organisation. The alpha-1 domain is a structural part of the peptide-binding cleft. The alpha-2 domain is a structural part of the peptide-binding cleft. Mediates the interaction with TAP1-TAP2 complex. The alpha-3 Ig-like domain mediates the interaction with CD8 coreceptor. The VL9 peptide/epitope (VMAPRT[V/L][L/V/I/F]L) derived from the signal sequence is loaded onto HLA-E and enables HLA-E expression at the plasma membrane. Distinct VL9 peptides presented by HLA-E variably affect its recognition by KLRD1-KLRC1 or KLRD1-KLRC2 receptors on NK cells, setting NK cell activation threshold. Common HLA-C allotypes contain functional VL9 peptides (VMAPRTLIL and VMAPRTLLL). VL9 peptides (VMAPRTALL and VMAPRQALL) derived from HLA-C07, C17 and C*18 allotypes display low affinity for HLA-E and fail to drive NK cell activation.
Polymorphism. Displays lower polymorphism than HLA-A and HLA-B. Polymorphic residues encode for alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The human population is estimated to have millions of HLA-C alleles. But only 14 common HLA-C alleles are considered core alleles, representing all functionally significant variation (polymorphism) in alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. These are: C01:02; C02:02; C03:02; C04:01; C05:01; C06:02; C07:01; C07:04; C08:01; C12:02; C14:02; C15:02; C16:01 and C17:01. Among these, C01:02; C02:02; C03:02; C08:01; C12:02; C14:02 and C15:02, were likely passed by introgression from archaic to modern humans. Functional alleles of more recent origin (non-core) were derived by recombination. The sequence shown is that of C07:02. The sequences of core alleles and common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups are described as variants of C*07:02. Allelic variations of HLA-C signal peptide regulate HLA-E recognition by KLRD1-KLRC1 and KLRD1-KLRC2 receptors in viral infection and tumorigenesis by affecting its processing and by changing the affinity of HLA-E-VL9 complex for KLRD1-KLRC1 and KLRD1-KLRC2 receptors.
Miscellaneous. A transcript of allele C*16:01. This isoform lacks the transmembrane domain and is predicted to be a secreted protein.
