Abstract:
Objective:To confirm the sequence of a null allele HLA-C*08:127N produced by a base insertion.Methods:PCR sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe(SSOP)and PCR sequence-based typing(SBT)were used for HLA routine detection,which discovered abnormal sequence maps of HLA-C in one acute myeloid leukemia patient.The sequence of the above loci was confirmed by next generation sequencing(NGS)technology.Results:The SSOP typing result showed that HLA-C locus was C*03:04,C*08:01,while the sequence was suspected to be inserted or deleted in exon 3 by SBT,and finally confirmed by NGS as C*03:04,C*08:127N.Conclusion:When base insertion produces HLA null alleles,SBT analysis software cannot provide correct results,but NGS technology can more intuitively obtain accurate HLA typing results.
