Table I. KIR3DL1 polymorphism affects specificity for HLA class I.

A summary of the binding interactions of four KIR3DL1 allotypes with nine complexes of HLA class I and a viral peptide, as determined by Thananchai et al 2007 (90). Boxes shaded green denote significant binding. Under peptide the amino acid sequence of the peptide is given and the viral pathogen from which it derives: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The relationship of the D0, D1, and D2 domains for each 3DL1 allotype is shown below; blue identical to 3DL1*005 and red identical to 3DL1*015
