Abstract excerpt
Human leukocyte antigen-B*4459 was first identified in a renal patient. The novel allele differs from B*44020101 by a single nucleotide change in exon 3 at nucleotide 453 (C-->G), which changes codon 127 from asparagine (AAC) to lysine (AAG) explaining some aberrant B44 serology results in 2003.
