Abstract excerpt
In the HLA-DRB subregion of man, five major groups of haplotypes, often displaying a remarkable polymorphism, are distinguishable. The polymorphism is thought to be generated by point mutation, microgene conversion and gene rearrangement by recombination. In order to gain insight into the organization of the rhesus macaque major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II region, DRB genes from monkeys of different...
