Answer:
MHCI
Explanation:
Major histocompatibility complex I (MHCI) is present on the nucleated cells of the body. Endogenous pathway represents the pathway of MHC class I molecules.
MHCI display peptide fragment of proteins to the cytotoxic T cells with the help of CD8 ( Cluster of differentiation). CD8 binds with the MHCI and expressed on the surface of cytotoxic T cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
