Abstract excerpt
The serologically defined HLA-DR53 antigen is associated with HLA-DR4, -DR7, and -DR9 antigens, and these haplotypes contain two functional genes, DRB1 and DRB4, and two pseudogenes, DRB7 and DRB8. The DRB4 gene encodes the DR53 antigen, and has been officially recognized to contain three allelic...
