Abstract excerpt
NKG2D (KLRK1) is an activating receptor on natural killer (NK) and T-cells and binds a diverse panel of polymorphic ligands encoded by the MIC and RAET1 gene families. We studied the clinical importance of retinoic acid early transcript-1 (RAET1) polymorphism in allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) by determining the frequency of 18 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and individual RAET1 alleles in 371...
