Class I molecules of the major histocompatibility complex are essential for antigen-specific recognition by CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). These molecules bind processed peptides in association with] 32-microglobulin in the endoplasmic reticulum, transport them via the Golgi complex to the cell surface, and present them to CTL (Townsend and Bodmer 1989; Townsend et al. 1989; Townsend et al. 1990). Crystallographic analysis has revealed six pockets, designated as pockets AF, within a peptide-binding groove of the class I molecule HLA-A2. 1 (Saper et al. 1991). Similar structures are seen in HLA-Aw68 (Garrett et al. 1989; Guo et al. 1992), HLA-B27 (Madden et al. 1991; Colbert et al. 1993), and H-2K b (Matsumura et al. 1992). These pockets play a critical role in CTL recognition. Recently, natural peptides associated with HLA-A2. 1 were isolated and sequenced (Falk et al. 1991; Hunt et al. 1992; Wei and Cresswell 1992). These data have indicated that HLA-A2-associated peptides commonly possess leucine or methionine at position 2 (P2), suggesting that P2 is an anchor residue for binding and positioning of HLA-A2-associated peptides in the peptidebinding groove. Because P2 is thought to interact with, and fit into, pocket B (Falk et al. 1991; Latron et al. 1991; Madden et al. 1991; Guo et al. 1992; Matsumura et al. 1992; Colbert et al. 1993), this pocket is believed to be important for peptide binding and, therefore, CTL recognition. In this study, we have examined interaction between P2 of influenza A matrix peptide (FMP 58-66) and amino acid residues in pocket B of HLA-A2. 1 in FMP-specific CTL recognition, using peptide analogues of FMP 58-66 with single amino acid substitutions at P2 and HLAA2. 1 mutants with single amino acid changes in pocket B. A human FMP-specific, ttLA-A2. 1-restricted CTL line (BC) was generated from a healthy HLA-A2. 1-positive
