[Genetic polymorphisms, function and clinical effect of HLA-G].

Abstract excerpt

HLA-G is a non-classical major histocompatibility complex class I molecule that differs from the classical HLA I class molecules by (1) a limited polymorphism, (2) a tissue-restricted distribution and (3) a transcription of spliced messenger RNAs encoding for at least four membrane-bound and two soluble HLA-G isoforms.
