Abstract excerpt
Human leucocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a non-classical HLA class I molecule that unlike the classical HLA, has low polymorphism. This molecule, initially, found on invasive trophoblast cells and is postulated to have mediatory role in maternal-fetal interface. So far 43 alleles of HLA-G gene have been found. Studies on alleles of HLA-G gene could be useful in understanding the genetic variants of HLA-G alleles in...
