abstract：:Indian and Chinese rhesus macaques are often used in biomedical research. Genetic analyses of the major histocompatibility class I region have revealed that these macaques display a substantial level of polymorphism at Mamu-A and Mamu-B loci, which have been subject to duplication. Only a few Mamu class I allotypes ar...
