Abstract excerpt
We report here a novel DRB1 allele identified during sequence-based HLA-DRB typing. This allele was detected during routine HLA typing of a patient and his family prior to bone marrow transplantation. The new allele, DRB1*0108, was found in the patient and in a brother. Molecular cloning and sequencing confirmed that the new DRB1 allele is identical to DRB1*0101 at exon 2 except for a single nucleotide...
