Reconstructing Macroevolutionary Patterns in Avian MHC Architecture With Genomic Data
The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) is a hyper-polymorphic genomic region, which forms a part of the vertebrate adaptive immune system and is crucial for intra- and extra-cellular pathogen recognition (MHC-I and MHC-IIA/B, respectively).

Improved haplotype resolution of highly duplicated MHC genes in a long-read genome assembly using MiSeq amplicons [PDF]
Long-read sequencing offers a great improvement in the assembly of complex genomic regions, such as the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region, which can contain both tandemly duplicated MHC genes (paralogs) and high repeat content.

Genetic analysis of completely sequenced disease-associated MHC haplotypes identifies shuffling of segments in recent human history [PDF]
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is recognised as one of the most important genetic regions in relation to common human disease. Advancement in identification of MHC genes that confer susceptibility to disease requires greater knowledge of ...
