  2. Human leukocyte antigen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_leukocyte_antigen

    The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system is a complex of genes on chromosome 6 in humans that encode cell-surface proteins responsible for regulation of the immune system. [1] The HLA system is also known as the human version of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) found in many animals.

  3. History and naming of human leukocyte antigens - Wikipedia

    In the case of B44, the antigen had already been split from the B12 broad antigen group. In 1983, the cDNA sequences of HLA-A3 and Cw3 [20] All three sequences compared well with mouse MHC class I antigens. The Western European HLA-B7 antigen had been sequenced (although the first sequence had errors and was replaced). In short order, many HLA ...

  4. HLA-G - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-G

    HLA-G histocompatibility antigen, class I, G, also known as human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HLA-G gene. [5] HLA-G belongs to the HLA nonclassical class I heavy chain paralogues. Classical HLA I proteins are found on all nucleated cells and express peptides in their peptide binding groove. They ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-A

    HLA-A is a group of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) that are encoded by the HLA-A locus, which is located at human chromosome 6p21.3. [1] HLA is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigen specific to humans. HLA-A is one of three major types of human MHC class I transmembrane proteins. The others are HLA-B and HLA-C. [2]

  7. HLA-DM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-DM

    HLA-DM (human leukocyte antigen DM) is an intracellular protein involved in the mechanism of antigen presentation on antigen presenting cells (APCs) of the immune system. [2] It does this by assisting in peptide loading of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II membrane-bound proteins. [3] HLA-DM is encoded by the genes HLA-DMA and HLA ...

  8. HLA-A31 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-A31

    HLA-A31 (A31) is a human leukocyte antigen serotype within HLA-A serotype group. The serotype is determined by the antibody recognition of α 31 subset of HLA-A α-chains. For A31, the alpha "A" chain are encoded by the HLA-A *31 allele group and the β-chain are encoded by B2M locus. [1] This group currently is dominated by A*3101.

  9. HLA-A24 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-A24

    HLA-A24 (A24) is a human leukocyte antigen serotype within HLA-A serotype group. The serotype is determined by the antibody recognition of α 24 subset of HLA-A α-chains. For A24, the alpha, "A", chain are encoded by the HLA-A *24 allele group and the β-chain are encoded by B2M locus. [1] This group currently is dominated by A*2402.
