Mhc allelic diversity and modern human origins.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Dec 1997

Hickson R E, Cann R L

Abstract excerpt

Thirty complete coding sequences of human major histocompatibility complex (Mhc) class II DRB alleles, spanning 237 codons, were analyzed for phylogenetic information using distance, parsimony, and likelihood approaches. Allelic genealogies derived from different parts of the coding sequence (exo...
