As ancestral haplotypes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) appear to define identical MHC haplotypes in unrelated individuals, unrelated individuals sharing the same ancestral haplotype should also share the same NK-defined allospecificities that have recently been shown to map to the human MHC. To test this prediction, multiple cell lines from unrelated individuals sharing the same ancestral haplotypes were tested for the NK-defined allospecificities. It was found that cells sharing ...[more]
