CUTTING EDGE

Cutting Edge: Selective Deamidation by Tissue Transglutaminase Strongly Enhances Gliadin-Specific T Cell Reactivity1

Celiac disease (CD) is caused by gluten ingestion in susceptible individuals. Tissue transglutaminase (tTG)-specific Abs are characteristic of CD, and increased tTG activity has been observed in the jejunal biopsies of patients. Here we demonstrate that tTG selectively deamidates gluten peptides, which results in strongly enhanced T cell-stimulatory activity. To our knowledge, this is the first example of an enzymatic modification of a food protein that affects T cell recognition. Moreover, these modifications may lead to the amplification of gluten-specific T cell responses in the gut and consequently may be important for the development of CD.
