Discovery of gorilla MHC-C expressing C1 ligand for KIR.

Immunogenetics - 1 May 2018

Hans Jörg B, Vigilant Linda

Abstract excerpt

In comparison to humans and chimpanzees, gorillas show low diversity at MHC class I genes (Gogo), as reflected by an overall reduced level of allelic variation as well as the absence of a functionally important sequence motif that interacts with killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR). Here, we use recently generated large-scale genomic sequence data for a reassessment of allelic diversity at Gogo-C, the...
