RA   Blanco J.C., Pletneva L.M., Prince G.A.;
RT   "Cotton rat major histocompatibility complex (MHC).";
RL   Submitted (SEP-2002) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases.
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex
CC       (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune
CC       system (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Beta-2-
CC       microglobulin is the beta-chain of major histocompatibility complex
CC       class I molecules (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the beta-2-microglobulin family. {ECO:0000305}.
