Abstract excerpt
Allelic polymorphism and expression variation of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) 3DL1 on natural killer (NK) cells differ among populations. To determine whether the phenotypic variants are due to KIR polymorphism, transcription or copy number, the allelic polymorphism, mRNA levels and antigen expression of KIR3DL1 were assessed in 162 individuals. We characterized 13 KIR3DL1 alleles, five of which...
