Polymorphism of human CD1 genes
1 Aug 1999
Abstract excerpt
Human CD1 genes have been reported to be invariant or to show limited polymorphism. Recently, certain functions of CD1 antigens have been described to include the presentation lipid and glycolipid antigens. These observations prompted a thorough survey of the genetic polymorphism in the five human CD1 genes (CD1a-CD1e). Using polymerase chain reaction-single stranded conformational polymorphism (PCR-SSCP)...
