Abstract excerpt
An extensive family study on HLA-DPB1 was performed in 105 families living in northeastern Japan. In a linkage study between HLA-DPB1 and other HLA loci, five apparent recombinations between DPB1 and DR/DQ loci were observed. The recombination frequency (theta) with maximum probability was estimated to be 0.017 by the lod score method. DPB1 allele and haplotype frequencies in unrelated parents were determined by...
