MHC evolution in three salmonid species: a comparison between class II alpha and beta genes.

Immunogenetics - 1 Aug 2010

Gómez Daniela, Conejeros Pablo, Marshall Sergio H, Consuegra Sofia

Abstract excerpt

The genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are amongst the most variable in vertebrates and represent some of the best candidates to study processes of adaptive evolution. However, despite the number of studies available, most of the information on the structure and function of these genes come from studies in mammals and birds in which the MHC class I and II genes are tightly linked and class II...
