⢠What is a haptotype? __ Because the MHC genes are closelylinked, inheritance for the grouping is known as a haplotype.
⢠Explain what a haplotype is in regard to inheritance of MHCantigens
⢠Describe differences in structure of Class I and Class IIproteins
⢠Compare the transport of antigen to cellular surfaces by classI and class II protein
