Abstract excerpt
In this study we typed HLA-A polymorphisms by a new sequence-based typing (SBT) method, which involved one PCR reaction and four sequencing reactions covering exon 2 and exon 3. This method allowed complete identification of all known HLA-A alleles and revealed the presence of a new allele, named HLA-A*2608. We also introduced sequencing of exon 4 for some samples in order to discriminate the allelic pairs that...
