Abstract excerpt

We have characterized the DRB1 genotypes in a sample of 64 South American Indians drawn from populations in Chile, Colombia, and Ecuador. No novel DRB1 alleles were found in the total of 17 different alleles characterized, indicating that rapid allelic generation does not occur at the DRB1 loci,...
