  2. Human leukocyte antigen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_leukocyte_antigen

    Human leukocyte antigen. The human leukocyte antigen ( HLA) system or complex of genes on chromosome 6 in humans which encode cell-surface proteins responsible for regulation of the immune system. [1] The HLA system is also known as the human version of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) found in many animals. [2]

  3. Staphylococcus aureus alpha toxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staphylococcus_aureus...

    Alpha toxin from S. aureus ( PDB: 7ahl ). Alpha-toxin, also known as alpha-hemolysin (Hla), is the major cytotoxic agent released by bacterium Staphylococcus aureus and the first identified member of the pore forming beta-barrel toxin family. [1] This toxin consists mostly of beta-sheets (68%) with only about 10% alpha-helices.

  4. HLA-NET - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-NET

    HLA-NET is a network targeted to the study of Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) from a populational point of view. The network was initiated by COST Action BM0803 [1] in January 2009. Currently HLA-NET activities are being coordinated by a subcommittee of the scientific committee of the European Federation for Immunogenetics .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA_Informatics_Group

    The HLA Informatics Group ( HIG) is a research group led by Professor Steven Marsh at the Anthony Nolan Research Institute that develops, runs and maintains the IMGT ( immunogenetics )/HLA ( Human leukocyte antigen) Database and the IPD (immuno polymorphism database). The IMGT/HLA database originated as part of IMGT and was merged with IPD in ...

  6. Histocompatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histocompatibility

    Histocompatibility. Histocompatibility, or tissue compatibility, is the property of having the same, or sufficiently similar, alleles of a set of genes called human leukocyte antigens (HLA), or major histocompatibility complex (MHC). [1] Each individual expresses many unique HLA proteins on the surface of their cells, which signal to the immune ...

  7. HLA-B27 - Wikipedia

    1w0w , 1uxw , 1of2 , 1k5n . Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) B27 (subtypes B*2701-2759) [1] is a class I surface molecule encoded by the B locus in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6 and presents antigenic peptides (derived from self and non-self antigens) to T cells. HLA-B27 is strongly associated with ankylosing ...

  9. HLA-DRA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HLA-DRA

    HLA class II histocompatibility antigen, DR alpha chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HLA-DRA gene. [4] HLA-DRA encodes the alpha subunit of HLA-DR. Unlike the alpha chains of other Human MHC class II molecules, the alpha subunit is practically invariable. However it can pair with, in any individual, the beta chain from 3 ...
