Comprehensive analysis of MHC class II genes in teleost fish genomes reveals dispensability of the peptide-loading DM system in a large part of vertebrates

BACKGROUND: Classical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules play an essential role in presenting peptide antigens to CD4(+) T lymphocytes in the acquired immune system. The non-classical class II DM molecule, HLA-DM in the case of humans, possesses critical function in assisting...
