I-N: a newly described H-2 I subregion between K and I-A

PMCID: PMC2185779  PMID: 6153215

Abstract

Strong, primary mixed leukocyte culture-proliferative responses in certain K region-incompatible strain combinations led us to consider whether an I region-like locus might exist between K and I-A. Results obtained with an (A. TL X B10.D2)F1 anti-B10.BR serum provided serological evidence for a new locus; B10.T(6R)-absorbed serum retained reactivity on AQR lymphocytes. This finding demonstrates an antigen, Ia.W41, encoded by a locus, Ia-7, within a new I subregion, I-N.
