Dausset's discovery in 1958 of the HLA system allowed physicians to verify compatibility between the donor and recipient of an organ to be transplanted. Eric Hunter of the Emory Vaccine Center and Oxford University graduate student Hayley Crawford studied people in Zambia and South Africa with one form of the HLA gene that helps the immune system control HIV, called HLA-B*5703. The span depends largely on inherited luck, for there are variants of HLA genes that are far better at combatting HIV than others. |
