Abstract excerpt
A HLA-DRB3-subtyping system that uses TGGE for analyzing DRB3 alleles was developed. The polymorphic second exon of the HLA-DRB3 gene was amplified from four homozygous typing cell lines, 223 healthy individuals, and 102 patients with Graves' disease by using the PCR. The PCR products were electrophoresed in a temperature gradient from 35 degrees C to 70 degrees C, and the resulting fragments were visualized by...
