Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Class I MHC genes code for markers that display unique characteristics of self, which are involved in presenting peptides to CD8+ T cells. The other options are incorrect as complement components are coded by different genes, not all HLA antigens are coded by Class I MHC genes, and receptors located primarily on macrophages and B cells are coded by other types of genes.
