Abstract excerpt
Recently, we have demonstrated that the HLA class I regulatory complex (CRC) is conserved in a locus-specific manner with limited allelic variation. In this study, we have analyzed the CRC sequences of the alleles that showed variation from a total of 22 well-characterized, HLA-homozygous B-LCLs, using PCR amplification of genomic DNA and direct sequencing. We compared the sequences of these alleles with their...
