HLA class I allele promiscuity revisited.

abstract：:Monoclonal antibodies reacting with TL-like class I antigens expressed on the surface of human thymocytes and some T leukemia lines were found to define three independent epitopic clusters, two of which could be shown to reside on serologically distinct molecular subsets by a solid-phase radioimmunoassay as well as by...
