​Which one of the following combinations of CD molecules and their associated functions is matched INCORRECTLY?​
Question

Which one of the following combinations of CD molecules and their associated functions is matched INCORRECTLY?

A.

CD1: Antigen-presenting proteins that present antigenic peptides to T-cell receptors of natural killer T cells (NKT)

B.

CD8: Thymic differentiation marker for T cells

C.

D11a: A membrane glycoprotein that provides cell-cell adhesion by interaction with ICAM 1 (intercellular adhesion molecule 1)

D.

CD14: Activates innate immune responses by transferring LPS-LBP complex to TLR4.

Correct option is A

Explanation-

Option a : CD1-  Antigen-presenting proteins that present antigenic peptides to T-cell receptors on NKT cells.
Incorrect
CD1 molecules present lipid and glycolipid antigens, not peptides, to NKT cells. The mention of "peptides" is incorrect.

Option b : CD8 - Thymic differentiation marker for T cells.
Correct
CD8 is expressed on cytotoxic T cells (CD8+ T cells) and acts as a co-receptor during thymic differentiation.

Option c : CD11a - A membrane glycoprotein that provides cell-cell adhesion by interaction with ICAM1.
Correct
CD11a is part of LFA-1 (lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1), which interacts with ICAM-1 for leukocyte adhesion.

Option d : CD14 - Activates innate immune responses by transferring LPS-LBP complex to TLR4.
Correct
CD14 binds the LPS-LBP complex and facilitates its recognition by TLR4 on innate immune cells.

Since the option a is incorrect among all the other options that makes it a correct answer.
Because CD1 presents lipids/glycolipids, not peptides, to NKT cells.
