Abstract excerpt
Two new human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I alleles, A*3025 and Cw*0221, were identified in Spanish Caucasian donors by polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific oligonucleotide and subsequently characterized by full coding region sequencing. HLA-A*3025 shows a single amino acid replacement at residue 70 (H>Q) compared with A*300201. HLA-Cw*0221 differs from Cw*020202 by a change at position 14 (H>Q).
