Diversity of Retroviral Oncogenes | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the diversity of retroviral oncogenes. Studies of other retroviruses of several different animal species (most notably the mouse, rat, chicken, and certain species of monkeys) soon led to the identification of other retroviral oncogenes. Over 20 different retroviral oncogene (Table 16.2) have been described to date, and more undoubtedly remain to be discovered. [...]

Human Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) | Genetics

The MHC has been divided into three regions on the basis of structure, function and alloreactivity of the gene products, which-are: 1. Class - I at the telomeric ends 2. Class - II at the centromeric ends 3. Class - III, which is located between class - I and II regions. The classic class I and II genes code for [...]
