Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo report on a novel HLA allele identified in a Chinese individual.
METHODSRoutine HLA genotyping was carried out with polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotide probes (PCR-SSOP) and sequencing-based typing (SBT).
RESULTSA new HLA allele has been identified. The sequence differed from its closest allele B*37:04:01 at nt618 (GCG→GCA), which resulted in no change of codon 206.
CONCLUSIONA novel HLA allele HLA-B*37:04:02 (GU391034) has been identified and officially named by the WHO Nomenclature Committee.
