Genetic exchange of sequence information between members of a gene family, generally denoted gene conversion, causes a phenomenon called "concerted evolution" meaning that non-allelic genes do not evolve independently. The possible significance of this phenomenon in the evolution of major histocompa
To study the class II genes of the major histocompatibility region of the sheep genome, human HLA class II genes corresponding to the known subregions in man (DR, DQ, DP, DO, and DZ) were used for Southern hybridization analysis of sheep DNA and to probe a sheep genomic library. Hybridizing bands we
