African-American HLA class II allele and haplotype diversity.

Tissue antigens - 1 May 1997

Just J J, King M C, Thomson G, Klitz W

Abstract excerpt

Molecular genetic techniques were used to type nine loci in the HLA class II region in 241 unrelated African-Americans from New York City (NYC). Several effects attributable to recent genetic admixture were evident: the number of distinct class II alleles and haplotypes was larger in the African-Americans than in people of African or European origin, the allele frequencies were more consistently even, and linkage...
