Abstract excerpt
More than 590 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B alleles have been identified by sequence analysis. Although the polymorphic exon 2 and 3 sequences of all HLA-B alleles are described, the sequences of the other exons of a number of infrequent B-alleles are unknown. In this study, the exon 1, 4, and 5 sequences of 39 different HLA-B alleles were elucidated by allele-specific sequencing. Overall, these exon sequences...
