Scope note: Locus genéticos del complejo principal de histocompatibilidad de los vertebrados que codifican productos polimórficos que controlan la respuesta inmunitaria frente a antígenos específicos. En el ser humano estos genes se encuentran en la región HLA-D, y en el ratón incluyen los locus H-2M, I-A e I-E.
