The KIR2LD5A and KIR2DL5B Genes in the KIR Gene Cluster

The relative organization of the KIR genes on the KIR A and B haplotypes is shown. Each KIR gene is identified with a rectangular box. Each haplotype can be divided into a centromeric and telomeric segment, between which recombination occurs, resulting in a centromeric A (cenA) haplotype, a centromeric B (cenB) haplotype, a telomeric A (telA) haplotype and a telomeric B (telB) haplotype[24]. The KIR2DL5A and KIR2DL5B genes are indicated in grey.
