Abstract:
To investigate the characteristics of the allele distribution of HLA-B*15 gene family in Chinese Han population and to study its influence on the selection of clinical transplantation donor, population of a 815 Han in north China from Shaanxi sub-registry of Chinese National Marrow Donor Project was randomly selected and out of them 206 HLA-B*15 positive samples according to the previous known low-resolution typing results were acquired. HLA-B*15 gene polymorphisms of above-mentioned samples and other 17 individuals were analyzed for the first time by polymerase chain reaction sequence-based typing (PCR-SBT) at high-resolution level. The structure differentiation of all HLA-B*15 alleles were analyzed by HLA three-dimensional structure modeling and software Swiss-PdbViewer. The results showed that the distribution of HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 gene of randomly selected 815 samples accorded with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and the gene frequency of HLA-B*15 was 0.1379. There were a total of 16 kinds of alleles of HLA-B*15 gene family to be obtained, which belonged to 7 kinds of serologic specificities. HLA-B*1501, B*1511, B*1502 and B*1518 were the major alleles with a frequency of 0.0485, 0.0215, 0.0178 and 0.0160 respectively, and the constituent ratio of their accumulated frequencies was 75.11%. The each frequency of the other 12 kinds of B*15 alleles was lower than 0.0100. Among the homozygote of 10 samples at low/medial-resolution level, there were only 4 samples to be pur sang homozygote of HLA-B*15xx, --at high-resolution level, and all the homozygote were constituted by respective dominating alleles. HLA three-dimensional structure modeling demonstrated that within the same specificity, gentle structure differentiation not only existed, such as B*1501, 1505, 1507, 1525, 1527, 1532 (each RMSD
