Characterization of a novel human leukocyte antigen-DQB1 allele, DQB1*030504.

摘要

A new human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II allele has been identified in a Turkish (Armenian) patient awaiting liver transplantation. The patient typed serologi-cally HLA-A1, 29(19); B7, 51(5) (Bw4, Bw6); Cw7; DR4, 15(2); DR51; DR53; DQ1. However, SSP typing for class II resulted in an unexplained positive reaction in one of the DQBl*03 primer mixes.
