Open AccessDiversity of KIR genes and their HLA-C ligands in Ugandan populations with historically varied malaria transmission intensity
Malaria is one of the most serious infectious diseases in the world. The malaria burden is greatly affected by human immunity, and immune responses vary between populations. Genetic diversity in KIR and HLA-C gen...

Open AccessKiller cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes and their HLA-C ligands in a Ugandan population
Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes are expressed by natural killer cells and encoded by a family of genes exhibiting considerable haplotypic and allelic variation. HLA-C molecules, the dominant ...
