Abstract excerpt
Using PCR-SSOP typing we have deduced the composition and frequency of HLA-DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, -DQA1, and -DQB1 alleles present in DR51-, DR52-, and DR53-related haplotypes, in 519 individuals representative of five ethnic Thai populations recruited in central, northeastern and northern Thailand. In total, we have unequivocally detected at varying frequencies, 17 DR51-related haplotypes, 24 DR52...
