Abstract excerpt
The swine lymphocyte antigen class I (SLA I) is a highly polymorphic gene superfamily that plays an important role in swine anti-viral immune responses. However, an understanding of the highly variable sites and peptide-binding specificities of SLA I molecule is limited. In this study, a total of 27 SLA I alleles were identified from 3 Tibetan wild boars and 3 Heishan pigs. The phylogenetic relationship between...
