Abstract excerpt
cDNA sequencing of the first domains of DRB1, DRB3, DQA1, and DQB1 alleles was used to examine the extent of diversity in American black individuals expressing several DRw11 haplotypes. In addition to previously described DRw11 alleles, DRB1*1102 and DRB1*1103, two new DRB1 alleles, DRB1*11012 and DRB1*11042, were identified which differ from previously described alleles at the nucleic acid but not at the protein...
