Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC Class I and II)

Content Provider AK Lectures
Description The major histocompatibility complex, or simply MHC, is a complex of proteins found on the membrane of our cells. They have two very important functions. Firstly, they allow our immune cells of the body to recognize our healthy cells and distinguish them from infected cells and pathogens. The special name of this particular type of complex is the major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC class I). Secondly, they also function in helping our immune cells to actually interact and communicate with one another and this class of complexes is called the major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC class II). The major histocompatibility complex contains a cleft that can attach either its own proteins (self-antigens) or pathogenic proteins (antigens). When leukocytes approach these complexes, they will recognize their own healthy cells and attack the cells that contain the pathogenic antigens.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
