Abstract excerpt
The analysis of families collected by the T1DGC and typed at high resolution for the HLA class I and class II loci provided an opportunity for identifying new alleles and rare recombination events. In one American Caucasian family, a novel allele (HLA-DPB1*1302), detected as an unusual pattern of probe binding, was identified in the mother and in one child. Amplicons from both individuals were sequenced and a new...
