KIR gene content diversity in a Zimbabwean population: does KIR2DL2 have a role in protection against human immunodeficiency virus infection?
Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) mediate natural killer cell function through interaction with their cognate human leukocyte antigen ligands. Thus, KIR gene variants have been implicated in resistance or susceptibility to viral infections. However, research on the role of these varia...
