Sequencing of 15 new BoLA-DRB3 alleles.

International journal of immunogenetics - 1 Aug 2008

Abstract excerpt

The class II DR of bovine major histocompatibility complex of cattle (BoLA) plays a central role in the regulation of the immune response through their ability to present those peptides to T-cell receptors. In this work, we sequenced the exon2 of DRB3 to identify new alleles in Chinese yellow cattle, a total of 15 new BoLA-DRB3 alleles were found.
