Definition: Genetic loci in the vertebrate major histocompatibility complex that encode polymorphic products which control the immune response to specific antigens. The genes are found in the HLA-D region in humans and in the I region in mice.  mhc stands for "Major Histocompatibility Complex"; DF: note short X ref    Other names MHC Class II Genes; Ir Genes; Immune Response Genes; Genes, Immune Response; Genes, HLA Class II; Genes, Class II; Class II Genes; Ir Gene; Immune Response Gene; Genes, Ir; Gene, Ir; Gene, Immune Response; Gene, Class II; Class II Gene
