Samonte, Irene E., Sato, Akie, Mayer, Werner E., Shintani, Seikou, Klein, Jan
The alpha(2)-macroglobulin (A2M) and the complement components C3 and C4 are related proteins derived from a common ancestor. Theoretically, this derivation could have occurred either by tandem...
Persistence of neutral polymorphisms in Lake Victoria cichlid fish
Nagl, Sandra, Tichy, Herbert, Mayer, Werner E., Takahata, Naoyuki, Klein, Jan
Phylogenetic trees for groups of closely related species often have different topologies, depending on the genes used. One explanation for the discordant topologies is the persistence of...

In East African Lake Victoria >200 endemic species of haplochromine fishes have been described on the basis of morphological and behavioral differences. Yet molecular analysis has failed to reveal...
Isolation and characterization of lymphocyte-like cells from a lamprey
Mayer, Werner E., Uinuk-ool, Tatiana, Tichy, Herbert, Gartland, Lanier A., Klein, Jan, Cooper, Max D.
Lymphocyte-like cells in the intestine of the sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, were isolated by flow cytometry under light-scatter conditions used for the purification of mouse intestinal...

To shed light on the origin of adaptive immunity, a cDNA library was prepared from purified lymphocyte-like cells of a jawless vertebrate, the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus). Randomly selected cDNA...
Genes encoding putative natural killer cell C-type lectin receptors in teleostean fishes
Sato, Akie, Mayer, Werner E., Overath, Peter, Klein, Jan
Mammalian natural killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes that express receptors specific for MHC class I molecules. The NK cell receptors belong to two structurally unrelated families, the...
Pancer, Zeev, Mayer, Werner E., Klein, Jan, Cooper, Max D.
All jawed vertebrates have highly diverse lymphocyte receptors, which allow discrimination between self and nonself antigens as well as the recognition of potential pathogens. Key elements of the...
