Background

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of rhesus macaque is a widely studied set of genes. Which plays a crucial role in experimental allografts of organs and stem cells, and influences rhesus macaque reproduction and numerous biological parameters. The genomic MHC region mainly contains clusters of genes that encode the MHC class I complex and the MHC class II complex. Studies show that the entire region from the MHC class I to the MHC class II of rhesus macaque (Mamu) is 4.72 Mb in length based on the genomic map data. Comparing to the classical HLA-A and HLA-B genes and the non-classical HLA-E, HLA-F, and HLA-G genes of human, the corresponding genes of rhesus macaque are identified in the α, β, κ block and designated Mamu-A, Mamu-B, Mamu-E, Mamu-F, and Mamu-G, respectively.
