Leën M P, Gorski J
Abstract excerpt
DRB genes encode proteins which play an important role in the immune response, and variation in their expression levels may be of functional immunological significance. To date, HLA class II gene promoter polymorphism has been analyzed almost exclusively in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B-cell lines. While previous studies have established important paradigms with regard to the mechanisms in DRB gene...
