Abstract excerpt
The human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) contains a variety of genes, many of which are highly polymorphic and of immunological importance. A database of MHC extended haplotypes was used to integrate experimental, cell line, and population data. Three alleles of the human TNF-beta (lymphotoxin-alpha) gene were identified, named TNFB*1SL, TNFB*2LL, and TNFB*1LS, each representing a different lineage in the...
