Abstract excerpt
We analyzed linkage between HLA-DRB1 and -DRB3 types in 219 Japanese donors by oligonucleotide genotyping. In the Japanese population, DRB1*1201 was linked with DRB3*0101 in all donors analyzed; in contrast, most Caucasian DRB1*1201 is known to be linked with DRB3*02(01/02) (*0201 or *0202). However, most DRB1*1202 was linked with DRB3*0301. Thus, the two DRw12-related DRB1 types are linked with DRB3 types...
