Haplotype analysis of the DQA genes in sheep: evidence supporting recombination between the loci.

Journal of animal science - 1 Mar 2007

Hickford J G H, Zhou H, Fang Q

Abstract excerpt

The ovine class II major histocompatibility complex mediates specific immune responses to exogenous antigens in sheep. A number of ovine class II loci have been identified, and most of them appear to be polymorphic. In this study we investigated the DQA1 locus of 520 sheep and the DQA2 locus of over 40,000 sheep, finding 12 sequences and 22 sequences, respectively, using DQA1- and DQA2-specific PCR primers. Among...
