Abstract excerpt

The HLA-DRB6 gene (also called DRB sigma/V1) has been found only in about 26% of human HLA haplotypes, i.e.; DR1, DRw10, and DR2-bearing ones (Corell et al. 1991). In contrast, exon-2 DRB6 sequences have been obtained from all tested primates: nine chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), three gorillas (Gorilla gorilla) and three orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus); other apes which had already been sequenced (one gorilla and one...
