Analysis of part of the chicken Rfp-Y region reveals two novel lectin genes, the first complete genomic sequence of a class I α-chain gene, a truncated class II β-chain gene, and a large CR1 repeat [PDF]
The Rfp-Y region lies on the same microchromosome as the B-F/B-L region of the B complex, yet in contrast to the latter it is poorly characterised. To date it has been shown to contain at least two class I alpha-chain ( Y-F) genes, a class II B-chain ...

Beyond FoxP3—Identification of a Chicken Regulatory T Cell Signature
Chicken FOXP3+ putative regulatory T cells were identified using both bulk and single‐cell RNA sequencing to define their transcriptional signature and flow cytometry to confirm surface marker expression. This combined approach revealed a distinct putative Treg subset characterized by CD4, CD25, and GITR surface expression. ABSTRACT Regulatory T cells (
