Sequence and diversity of variable gene segments coding for rabbit T-cell receptor beta chains.

abstract：:TAP1 and TAP2 are two major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes, located between HLA-DP and -DQ, whose products form a transporter molecule involved in endogenous antigen processing. Polymorphic residues have been described in both genes and, in this study, we have identified another polymorphic site within the ade...
