β¦ Synopsis
Genes of the HLA class II region encode products which play a central role in immune responses. Of all the genes located in the HLA class II region, the DR, DQ, and DP gene products have been studied most intensively in terms of their functional role in immune responses and polymorphism. Recently a number of

Nucleotide sequence analysis of rhesus macaque major histocompatibility complex class I cDNAs allowed the identification of the orthologue of HLA-F, designated Mamu-F. Comparison of Mamu-F with earlier published human and chimpanzee orthologues demonstrated that these sequences share a high degree o
Serological studies have suggested the presence of a new HLA-B39 subtype (B39.2) in the Japanese population. To identify the new HLA-B39 subtype and compare it with an other HLA-B39 subtype (B39.1), the genes encoding HLA-B39.1 (B'39013) and B39.2 (B'3902) have been cloned from Japanese. We have seq
HLA-B27 represents a family of closely related antigens. Six alleles which differ in a limited number of nucleotide substitutions have been described (B\*2701--B\*2706). These changes are clustered in alpha 1 and alpha 2 domains. Polymerase chain reaction strategies were designed to amplify specific
The main topics will include: MHC and non-MHC alloantigenic systems, genetic mapping, T and B cells (receptors, subsets differentiation), cytokines, antigen-presenting cells, transplantation (allo and xeno, solid organ, and bone marrow), autoimmunity, monoclonal antibodies, chimeric molecules, and t
