A novel DRB1 allele in DR2-positive American blacks.

Human immunology - 1 Jan 1991

Demopulos J T, Hodge T W, Wooten V, Acton R T

Abstract excerpt

Class II D region antigens of the major histocompatibility complex are naturally occurring dimeric proteins found on the surface of lymphoid cells. In most haplotypes at least two of the polymorphic beta chains are associated with a nonpolymorphic alpha chain. The allelic variation of these proteins lies in the first domain of the expressed protein. At present, there are four known DRB genes. DRB1 encodes for the...
