The generation of peptides presented by MHC class I molecules requires the proteolytic activity of the proteasome and/or other peptidases. The processing of a short vaccinia virus-encoded antigen can take place by a proteasome-independent pathway involving initiator caspase-5 and -10, which generate antigenic peptides recognized by CD8(+) T lymphocytes. In the present study, comparing single versus double enzyme digestions by mass spectrometry analysis, both qualitative and quantitative differen ...[more]
