Abstract excerpt
HLA class II polymorphism is functionally important in the control of immune responses, in transplantation immunology, and in the suceptibility to autoimmune diseases. HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 genes exhibit a larger degree of allelic polymorphism than usually recognized by routine serology. We have therefore performed an extensive analysis of DQB1 polymorphism by oligotyping. A set of 12 oligo probes was hybridized on...
