Abstract excerpt
DNA sequencing has revealed extensive polymorphism within the HLA-DRB and DQB genes of the major histocompatibility complex. At least 43 alleles of the DRB loci and 13 alleles of the DQB1 locus are currently recognized. Identification of these alleles can be performed phenotypically by cellular and serological techniques or genotypically by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis and...
