Origination of New Immunological Functions in the Costimulatory Molecule B7-H3: The Role of Exon Duplication in Evolution of the Immune System

B7-H3, a recently identified B7 family member, has different isoforms in human and mouse. Mouse B7-H3 gene has only one isoform (2IgB7-H3) with two Ig-like domains, whereas human B7-H3 has two isoforms (2IgB7-H3 and 4IgB7-H3). In this study a systematic genomic survey across various species from tel...
