Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide sequences were determined for the HLA-A, B and C alleles of three populations of Amerindians: the Havasupai tribe from North America, and the Guarani and Kaingang tribes from South America. All 15 Havasupai alleles are found in Eastern Hemisphere populations, whereas the Guarani and Kaingang each have six alleles that appear to be present only in the Western Hemisphere. Nine of the "new" alleles come...
