Molecular genetic diversity and evolution at the MHC DQB locus in four species of pinnipeds.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 1999

Hoelzel A R, Stephens J C, O'Brien S J

Abstract excerpt

Variation was investigated at exon 2 (including part of the putative peptide-binding region) of the class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) DQB locus for two congeneric phocid seal species and two congeneric otariid seal species. Polymorphism in one phocid species, the southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina), was comparable to that seen in human populations, while the other phocid, the northern elephant...
