Abstract excerpt
In the present study we characterize allelic variation of polymorphic OLA-DQA1 and OLA-DQA2 genes in sheep. To achieve this, PCR primers were designed to independently amplify the second exons of OLA-DQA1 and OLA-DQA2 genes. Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) gel analyses reveals that there are at least 12 distinct OLA-DQA2 sequences, 10 of which have been characterized by sequencing. Six distinct...
