Abstract excerpt

Sequence variability in the upstream regulatory regions (URR) of HLA class II genes has been described as an additional mechanism of diversity in these polymorphic genes. For HLA-DQB1, 12 URR variants have been identified previously by sequence analysis of approx. 600 bp located immediately upstr...
