Gene: [06p2133/HLADMA] major histocompatibility complex, class II, DM alpha; [HLA-DMA ]
FUN |
The HLA-DMA and HLA-DMB (GEM:06p2133/HLADMB) genes are required for the normal assembly of peptides with MHC class II molecules (FAM:MHC2/06p2133) and encode subunits of a functional heterodimer that is critical in the pathway of class II antigen presentation (Morris-1994; Fling-1994)." |
EVO |
Sequence differences of HLA-DMA and HLA-DMB suggested that they originated before divergence of the main class II genes (Radley-1994)." |
