A synapse is a site where information is transmitted from one cell to another. 

Types of synapses:

1. electrical synapse

2. chemical synapse

Presentation of nonpeptide antigens derived from pathogens involves the nonclassical class I–like CD1 molecule

Class I presentation requires internal synthesis of virus protein, as shown by the requirement that the target cell be infected by live virus, and by the inhibition of class I presentation observed when protein synthesis was blocked by the inhibitor emetine.

Class II presentation can occur with either live or replication-incompetent virus; protein synthesis inhibitors had no effect, indicating that new protein synthesis is not a necessary condition of class II presentation.

Class II, but not class I, presentation is inhibited by treatment of the cells with an agent that blocks endocytic processing within the cell (chloroquine).
