Viral resistance
Gene: KIR3DL1Comment on list classification: KIR3DL1 and KIR3DS1 are highly homologous (both exon and intron) and are considered to be alleles of the same gene
PMID: 12134147 found that activation of KIR3DS1 in combination of HLA-B (HLA-B Bw4-80Ile), is associated with delayed progression of AIDS in people infected with HIV-1. If KIR3DS1 is missing then HLA-B Bw4-80Ile is not associated with any AIDS outcomes; however, if HLA-B Bw4-80Ile is missing then KIR3DS1 is associated with more rapid AIDS progression.
PMID: 18317000 found that there is an increased proportion of KIR3DS1 in HIV-exposed uninfected individuals compared with individuals who have primary HIV infections. This suggest that KIR3DS1 may contribute to more active natural killer cell function seen in HIV-exposed uninfected individuals.
PMID: 16933987 showed that KIR3DS1 in combination with HLA-B Bw4-80Ile confers early direct containment of HIV viral load and protection against development of AIDS defining opportunistic infections (such as pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, CMV retinitis and mycobacterium avium complex).
PMID: 31288555 is a meta-analysis based on 25 studies that looked at KIR genes in HIV-1 control or susceptibility. This study found that KIR3DS1 may be associated to protection against HIV-1 infection. KIR3DS1/S1 individuals were significantly slower in getting HIV infection than KIR3DL1/S1 individuals.
Therefore, there is enough evidence to promote this gene to Green status.Created: 4 May 2020, 12:09 p.m. | Last Modified: 4 May 2020, 12:09 p.m.
