Natural killer cell receptor genes in the family Equidae: not only Ly49.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Futas Jan, Horin Petr

Abstract excerpt

Natural killer (NK) cells have important functions in immunity. NK recognition in mammals can be mediated through killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) and/or killer cell lectin-like Ly49 receptors. Genes encoding highly variable NK cell receptors (NKR) represent rapidly evolving genomi...
