Probing natural killer cell education by Ly49 receptor expression analysis and computational modelling in single MHC class I mice.
Murine natural killer (NK) cells express inhibitory Ly49 receptors for MHC class I molecules, which allows for "missing self" recognition of cells that downregulate MHC class I expression. During murine NK cell development, host MHC class I molecules impose an "educating impact"...
