Abstract excerpt
Exons 2-9 of KIR3DL3 alleles were characterized by genomic DNA sequencing in two families and in 78 bone marrow transplant samples. Several strategies were used to isolate single alleles for characterization and to resolve alternative allele combinations. We describe 17 novel 3DL3 alleles carried by 30 individuals. Compared with the most closely matched alleles, the new alleles differ by from one to three...
