| suppression by virus of host antigen processing and presentation of peptide antigen via MHC class II | (GO:0039505) | biological_process | Any viral process that inhibits a host antigen-presenting cell expressing a peptide antigen on its cell surface in association with an MHC class II protein complex. |

| obsolete MHC class II receptor activity | (GO:0045012) | molecular_function | OBSOLETE. A major histocompatibility complex class II receptor. These display processed antigens from virally-infected or transformed cells. Class-II-positive cells ('antigen-presenting cells') can take up antigens from outside by endocytosis, degrade them into small peptides, and re-export the peptides (now bound to MHC class II protein) to the cell surface. These peptide-MHC class II complexes can then be recognized by specific CD4+ lymphocytes. This term was made obsolete because it was defined ambiguously, and has therefore been used incorrectly in annotations. To update annotations of gene products that act as receptors for MHC class II protein complexes, use the molecular function term 'MHC class II receptor activity ; GO:0032395'; to update annotations of gene products which are components of MHC class II protein complexes, use the cellular component term 'MHC class II protein complex ; GO:0042613'. |
| MHC class II biosynthetic process | (GO:0045342) | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of major histocompatibility protein class II. |
| regulation of MHC class II biosynthetic process | (GO:0045346) | biological_process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of MHC class II. |
| negative regulation of MHC class II biosynthetic process | (GO:0045347) | biological_process | Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of MHC class II. |
| positive regulation of MHC class II biosynthetic process | (GO:0045348) | biological_process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of MHC class II. |
| MHC protein complex | (GO:0042611) | cellular_component | A transmembrane protein complex composed of an MHC alpha chain and, in most cases, either an MHC class II beta chain or an invariant beta2-microglobin chain, and with or without a bound peptide, lipid, or polysaccharide antigen. |
| active evasion of host immune response via regulation of host antigen processing and presentation | (GO:0042786) | biological_process | Any mechanism of active immune avoidance which works by regulating the host's antigen processing or presentation pathways, e.g. by blocking any stage in MHC class II presentation. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. |
| CD4 biosynthetic process | (GO:0045222) | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of CD4, a CD marker that occurs on T-helper cells and is involved in MHC class II restricted interactions. |
| obsolete active evasion of symbiont immune response via regulation of symbiont antigen processing and presentation | (GO:0051849) | biological_process | OBSOLETE. Any mechanism of active immune avoidance which works by regulating the symbiont's antigen processing or presentation pathways, e.g. by blocking any stage in MHC class II presentation. The symbiont is defined as the smaller of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. This term was made obsolete because it does not represent a real process that exists in nature. |
