HLA-B (major histocompatibility complex, class I, B) is a human gene that provides instructions for making a protein that plays a critical role in the immune system.HLA-B is part of a family of genes called the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex.

Symparalogs are paralogs that evolved from gene duplication of paralogous genes in subsequent speciation events. From the example above, if the descendant with genes A1 and B underwent another speciation event where gene A1 duplicated, the new species would have genes B, A1a, and A1b. In this example, genes A1a and A1b are symparalogs. [1]
ABC model of flower development guided by three groups of homeotic genes.. The ABC model of flower development is a scientific model of the process by which flowering plants produce a pattern of gene expression in meristems that leads to the appearance of an organ oriented towards sexual reproduction, a flower.
The gene encodes a glycosyltransferase—that is, an enzyme that modifies the carbohydrate content of the red blood cell antigens. The gene is located on the long arm of the ninth chromosome (9q34). [32] The I A allele gives type A, I B gives type B, and i gives type O. As both I A and I B are dominant over i, only ii people have type O
The α chain is encoded by a variant HLA-A gene, and the β chain (β 2-microglobulin) is an invariant β 2 microglobulin molecule. [3] The β 2 microglobulin protein is encoded by the B2M gene, [4] which is located at chromosome 15q21.1 in humans. [5]
Epistasis is when the phenotype of one gene is affected by one or more other genes. [21] This is often through some sort of masking effect of one gene on the other. [ 22 ] For example, the "A" gene codes for hair color, a dominant "A" allele codes for brown hair, and a recessive "a" allele codes for blonde hair, but a separate "B" gene controls ...
A gene family is a set of several similar genes, formed by duplication of a single original gene, and generally with similar biochemical functions. One such family are the genes for human hemoglobin subunits; the ten genes are in two clusters on different chromosomes, called the α-globin and β-globin loci.
