Positive selection in the major histocompatibility complex class III region of cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) of the Philippines origin.

Tissue antigens - 1 Jan 2013

Aarnink A, Bonhomme M, Blancher A

Abstract excerpt

The cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is a model of choice among primates for the study of local adaptation processes because of its mixed and wide insular and continental distribution. In a previous study, by using 12 markers [5 microsatellites located in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region and 7 outside MHC], we have detected a signal of positive selection on the microsatellite DRACA...
