Abstract excerpt
The structure and function of human leucocyte antigen (HLA-A) is well known and is an extremely variable protein. From the public HLA-A database, we chose 26 high frequency HLA-A alleles (45% of sequenced alleles). Using five arbitrary references from these alleles, we analyzed synonymous mutations at the third codon position (sSNP3) and non-synonymous mutations (NSM). Both mutation types showed non-random...
