An unusual class II molecule

Immunol Today. 1992 Dec;13(12):469-70. doi: 10.1016/0167-5699(92)90018-3.

Abstract

H-2O is a recently described non-polymorphic mouse MHC class II molecule. Here, Lars Karlsson and colleagues describe the discovery of the H-2Ob and H-2Oa loci and the pattern of expression of H-2O, and speculate on the possible function of this unusual molecule.
