The fate of duplicated major histocompatibility complex class Ia genes in a dodecaploid amphibian, Xenopus ruwenzoriensis.

European journal of immunology - 1 Sept 2002

Sammut Bénédicte, Marcuz Anne, Pasquier Louis Du

Abstract excerpt

The dodecaploid anuran amphibian Xenopus ruwenzoriensis represents the only polyploid species of Xenopus in which the full silencing of the extra copies of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) has not occurred. Xenopus ruwenzoriensis is a recent polyploid that has evolved within one of the two tetraploid groups of Xenopus through allopolyploidization. Family studies of its MHC haplotype suggested a...
