Evidence of Il2 and Il6 Genes in the Crinoïd: Antedon bifida (Echinodermata)
This report shows for the first time, the evidence of IL6 gene in an Echinodermata, so in an Invertebrate. It recalls also the existence of IL2 gene, we have found also in the Ophuirid: Ophiocomina nigra, the sister of the Asterid: Asterias rubens. All these animals belong to Echinodermata.
متن کاملSpeciation genes in free-spawning marine invertebrates.
Research on speciation of marine organisms has lagged behind that of terrestrial ones, but the study of the evolution of molecules involved in the adhesion of gametes in free-spawning invertebrates is an exception. Here I review the function, species-specificity, and molecular variation of loci coding for bindin in sea urchins, lysin in abalone and their egg receptors, in an effort to assess th...
متن کاملThe association of MHC genes with autism.
Several immune abnormalities have been noted in autistic subjects. These associations have been extended to the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), a section of DNA remarkable for the number of encoded proteins with immunological functions. The strongest MHC association identified thus far is for the null allele of C4B in the class III region. The complex allelic composition of C4 as determ...
متن کاملExpression of MHC II genes.
Innate and adaptive immunity are connected via antigen processing and presentation (APP), which results in the presentation of antigenic peptides to T cells in the complex with the major histocompatibility (MHC) determinants. MHC class II (MHC II) determinants present antigens to CD4+ T cells, which are the main regulators of the immune response. Their genes are transcribed from compact promote...
متن کاملMHC-encoded TAP genes in rheumatic diseases.
IT is now 6 yr since it was recognized that cell lines depleted of genes in the MHC class II region that mapped between the HLA DQB2 and HLA DPA1 genes failed in HLA class I antigen presentation to cytotoxic T cells [1,2]. Subsequent studies identified genes coding for the transporters associated with antigen presentation (TAP1 and 2). They belong to the family of ATP-binding membrane transport...
