KIRigami: the case for studying NK cell receptors in SIV+ macaques.

Immunologic research - 1 Jan 2008

Bimber Benjamin, O'Connor David H

Abstract excerpt

Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are one of the most significant genetic predictors of HIV and SIV disease outcome; however, in no case is MHC genotype alone sufficient to account for this durable HIV/SIV control. Killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) interact with MHC molecules and have been implicated in control of HIV replication. They provide an attractive candidate to act in concert...
