Figure 1From: Identification of the ancestral killer immunoglobulin-like receptor gene in primates(A) Location of KIR3DL0 in the human LRC on chromosome 19q13.4. The LRC comprises a number of diverse genes and gene clusters including leukocyte Ig-like receptors (LILRs), killer Ig-like receptors (KIRs), LRC-encoded novel genes (LENGs) and leukocyte-associated Ig-like receptors (LAIRs). Human KIR haplotypes differ in gene content; only the prototypical haplotype A is shown. (B) Phylogenetic analysis using complete protein sequences of KIR3DL0 and other Ig-domain containing receptors in the human LRC.Back to article page
