Question 5 of 47

Macrophages express multiple types of receptors on their surface that stimulate phagocytosis of microbes, leading to pathogen internalization and destruction. Many of these receptors, such as Dectin-1, rely on direct recognition of a PAMP on the pathogen surface. However, some receptors that stimulate phagocytosis rely on soluble factors (not associated with the phagocyte membrane) to identify and mark the pathogen for uptake by the phagocyte. One such receptor is:

Question 32 of 47

In rare instances, B cells can be found that have two immunoglobulin light chain alleles, both of which are rearranged in frame, and can encode functional light chain proteins. Yet, on the surface of the B cell, only one of the two light chain proteins is detected in the membrane-bound immunoglobulin receptor. The reason these rare cells have two functional light chain rearrangements but only express one of the two light chains as part of the B-cell receptor is:

Question 38 of 47

The antigen receptor on a T cell recognizes a degraded fragment of a protein (i.e., a peptide) bound to a specialized cell surface peptide-binding receptor called an MHC molecule. One key aspect of this system is that the peptides displayed on MHC molecules can be derived from intracellular proteins. This mode of antigen recognition is particularly important in allowing the adaptive immune response to detect infections by:
