Ancient duplication, coevolution, and selection at the MHC class IIA and IIB genes of birds
INTRODUCTION: The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) of vertebrates is a dynamically evolving multigene family primarily responsible for recognizing non-self peptide antigens and triggering a pathogen-specific adaptive immune response. In birds, the MHC was previously thought to evolve via conce...
