KIR gene content diversity in four Iranian populations.

Immunogenetics - 1 Jul 2009

Ashouri Elham, Farjadian Shirin, Reed Elaine F, Ghaderi Abbas, Rajalingam Raja

Abstract excerpt

Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) regulate natural killer cell response against infection and malignancy. KIR genes are variable in the number and type, thereby discriminating individuals and populations. Herein, we analyzed the KIR gene content diversity in four native populations of Iran. The KIR genomic diversity was comparable between Bakhtiari and Persian and displayed a balance of A and B KIR...
