Whole Exome Sequencing to Estimate Alloreactivity Potential Between Donors and Recipients in Stem Cell Transplantation [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Whole exome sequencing was performed on HLA-matched stem cell donors and transplant recipients to measure sequence variation contributing to minor histocompatibility antigen differences between the two. A large number of nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified in each of the nine unique donor-recipient pairs tested. This variation

Humoral immunocompetence in relation to condition, size, asymmetry and MHC class II variation in great snipe (Gallinago media) males [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 1. In recent years many studies have investigated the relationships between different aspects of the immune system and ecology in various organisms. Yet, it remains unclear why individuals differ in their ability to mount an immune response against various antigens (often referred to as 'immunocompetence'). Different kinds of trade-offs may be involved
