Abstract excerpt
The cattle major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region contains a variable number of classical class I genes encoding polymorphic, ubiquitously expressed molecules with a role in antigen presentation. Class I cDNA sequences have previously been reported that are thought to derive from putative nonclassical class I genes. We have located four nonclassical class I genes within the cattle genome; three are close...
