Evolution of MHC class I loci in marsupials: characterization of sequences from koala (Phascolarctos cinereus)

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Oct 1996

Houlden B A, Greville W D, Sherwin W B

Abstract excerpt

We demonstrate that koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) MHC class I constitutes a variable multigene family. A total of nine partial exon 2 and 3 major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I sequences are presented, including six sequences from at least three loci from one koala. Variation was detected by examination of sequences from a number of individuals and family groups. The koala is the second marsupial...
