ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -major histocompatibility complex (MHC), group of genes that code for proteins found on the surfaces of cells that help the immune system recognize foreign substances. MHC proteins are found in all higher vertebrates. In human beings the complex is also called the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system.

Detailed explanation-2: -The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of genes consists of a linked set of genetic loci encoding many of the proteins involved in antigen presentation to T cells, most notably the MHC class I and class II glycoproteins (the MHC molecules) that present peptides to the T-cell receptor.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Major Histocompatibility complex (MHC) system known as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) in humans is located on the short arm of chromosome 6 (6p21. 3) and contains the most polymorphic gene cluster of the entire human genome.

Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the following apply to the protein complex known as major histocompatability complex (MCH)?-MHC is present on every cell in the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -Non-professional antigen presenting cells include all nucleated cell types in the body. They use an MHC class I molecule coupled to beta-2 microglobulin to display endogenous peptides on the cell membrane.
