KIR2DL2/2DL3-E(35) alleles are functionally stronger than -Q(35) alleles. [PDF]
, 2016 KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3 segregate as alleles of a single locus in the centromeric motif of the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene family. Although KIR2DL2/L3 polymorphism is known to be associated with many human diseases and is an important
