• Background: HLA-class I major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens are intrinsic membrane glycoproteins expressed on nucleated cells and noncovalently associated with an invariant beta-2 microglobulin. They carry foreign determinants important for immune recognition by cytotoxic T cells, thus important for anti-viral and anti-tumour defence. Human HLA-class I antigens are represented by HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C molecules.
  MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ia) are expressed on the surface of all human cell types.
• Synonyms: MHC class I ABC, HLA Class 2 ABC
