Allele and genotype frequencies for the HLA-DQ alpha locus were determined for use in forensic analyses and paternity tests in Finland. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the reverse dot blot format were employed to detect 6 different HLA-DQ alpha alleles. All 6 HLA-DQ alpha alleles were detected among the 112 unrelated individuals with allele frequencies ranging from 5.8% to 32.6%. The distribution of the...
