Primate MHC class I from Genomes

2018-02-15

Abstract excerpt

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule plays a central role in the adaptive immunity of jawed vertebrates. Allelic variations have been studied extensively in some primate species, however a comprehensive description of the number of genes remains incomplete. Here, a bioinformatics program was developed to identify three MHC Class I exons (EX2, EX3 and EX4) from Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) datasets....
