Rapid lineage-specific diversification of the mast cell chymase locus during mammalian evolution.

Immunogenetics - 1 Aug 2006

Gallwitz Maike, Hellman Lars

Abstract excerpt

Serine proteases constitute the major protein granule content of cells of several hematopoietic cell lineages. A subgroup of these proteases, including the mast cell chymases, neutrophil cathepsin G, and T cell granzymes B to F and N, are in all investigated mammals encoded in one locus, the chym...
