Figure 3. Comparative Map of the MHC Organization in Mammals.

Figure 3

The color code is the same as inFigure 1. Orthologous genes are indicated by connecting lines. Dashed lines and question marks represent unknown or uncertain data for a given gene or portion of the genome. The total number of genes is reported for each region or sub-region (pseudogenes are not included). Map is not drawn to scale. Unless specified, the small boxes represent single genes. This map was generated using data from [2,47]. The asterisk in the figure indicates that the duplication of DMB concerns only the mouse.
