Natural Killer Cell Receptor Genes in Camels: Another Mammalian Model

Natural Killer Cell Receptor Genes in Camels: Another Mammalian Model

Due to production of special homodimeric heavy chain antibodies, somatic hypermutation of their T-cell receptor genes and unusually low diversity of their major histocompatibility complex genes, camels represent an important model for immunogenetic studies. Here, we analyzed genes encoding selected...
