Abstract excerpt
HLA-B*4006 is the most common allele amongst Indians. It belongs to the 'HLA-B44 supertype' family of alleles that constitute an important component of the peptide binding repertoire in populations world over. Its peptide binding characteristics remain poorly examined. The amino acid sequence and structural considerations suggest a small, poorly hydrophobic 'F' pocket for this allele that may adversely affect the...
