Abstract excerpt
Two new allelic exon-2 HLA-DRB sequences have been identified by using universal and also specific DRB primers. They may correspond to a previously unidentified DRB gene (DRB sigma) and define a new supratypic group ("DRw54") which includes DR1, DR"Br", DR2 and DRw10 bearing HLA haplotypes. This is probably the last HLA-DRB gene to be described in the standard DR haplotypes on the bases of the number of TaqI...
