Diminished Intracellular Invariant Chain Expression Following Vaccinia Virus Infection [PDF]
, 2009 Vaccinia virus (VV) has been used as a vaccine to eradicate smallpox and as a vaccine for HIV and tumors. However, the immunoevasive properties of VV, have raised safety concerns.

MHC Class II epitope predictive algorithms [PDF]
Immunology, 2010 SummaryMajor histocompatibility complex class II (MHC‐II) molecules sample peptides from the extracellular space, allowing the immune system to detect the presence of foreign microbes from this compartment. To be able to predict the immune response to given pathogens, a number of methods have been developed to predict peptide–MHC binding.

Contrasting patterns of selection between MHC I and II across populations of Humboldt and Magellanic penguins [PDF]
, 2016 Indexación: Web of ScienceThe evolutionary and adaptive potential of populations or species facing an emerging infectious disease depends on their genetic diversity in genes, such as the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). In birds, MHC class I deals

Mice lacking the MHC class II transactivator (CIITA) show tissue-specific impairment of MHC class II expression [PDF]
, 1996 CIITA activates the expression of multiple genes involved in antigen presentation and it is believed to be required for both constitutive and IFN\xce\xb3-inducible expression of these genes.

Functional Characterization of a Chicken Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II B Gene Promoter [PDF]
, 1997 A 0.7 kilobase (kb) DNA fragment from the 5\u27 flanking region of a chicken major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II B gene was cloned into chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter vectors and was transfected into a chicken macrophage ...
