An Evolutionary Analysis of Antigen Processing and Presentation across Different Timescales Reveals Pervasive Selection
The antigenic repertoire presented by MHC molecules is generated by the antigen processing and presentation (APP) pathway. We analyzed the evolutionary history of 45 genes involved in APP at the inter- and intra-species level. Results showed that 11 genes evolved adaptively in mammals. Several posit...
