Abstract excerpt
The analysis of HLA-DR5 haplotypes unravelled a new DRB3 polymorphism and permitted the identification of various associations between alleles of the DRB1 and DRB3 loci. This new polymorphism consists of a 10.5 kb Taq1 restriction fragment which was encountered in an African-American family (JS). In Caucasoids, the DRw11 allele has been previously observed only in association with the DRw52b allele. RFLP and...
