Abstract excerpt
In this report, we describe the identification of an human leucocyte antigen-Cw*06 (HLA-Cw*06) nucleotide sequence variant, a new HLA-Cw*0612. The new allele was detected during routine HLA typing by high-resolution sequence-based typing. Allele Cw*0612 showed one nucleotide difference with Cw*0602 at codon 153 (GCG-->ACG) resulting in an amino acid change from alanine to threonine.
