Abstract excerpt
We analysed alloreactive T-cell clones selected for their differential recognition of DR variants differing in the third hypervariable region (hvr) of the DRB1 gene (amino acid positions 67-70-71). This polymorphism leads to two main hvr3 types: a basic form (Leu67-Gln70-Arg/Lys71) and an acidic...
