Role of the X2 box in activated transcription from the DRA promoter in B cells
We investigated the function of the evolutionary conserved X2 box in the promoter of the HLA-DRA gene from the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in resting and activated B cells. NF-X2, which contains...

Evolutionary relationship between human major histocompatibility complexHLA-DR haplotypes
HLA-DR haplotypes of the human major histocompatibility complex are organized in five different groups. They can be identified based on the serological specificity expressed by the polymo...

Primate DRB genes from the DR3 and DR8 haplotypes contain ERV9 LTR elements at identical positions
The HLA-DRB genes of the human major histocompatibility complex constitute a multigene family with a varying number of DRB genes in different haplotypes. To gain further knowledge concerning the evolutionary rela...
