Peptide-binding characteristics of the novel allele DRB1*0112 are probably identical to DRB1*0101.

Abstract excerpt

So far 11 different amino acid variants of the HLA-DRB1*01 family have been reported. We here describe the identification of a new HLA-DRB1*01 allele in a healthy female Caucasian. The allele was detected by sequencing-based typing during high-resolution typing of a potential unrelated donor from the North German Bone Marrow Registry (NKR). Compared with DRB1*010101, to which it is closest, the new variant is...
