Sequence analysis of the new allele HLA-A*020112†
The name A*020112 was officially assigned by the WHO Nomenclature Committee in July 2005. This follows the agreed policy that, subject to the conditions stated in the most recent Nomenclature Report (3), names will be assigned to new sequences as they are identified. Lists of such new names will be published in the next WHO Nomenclature Report.
Abstract
The novel allele HLA-A*020112 differs from HLA-A*020101 by a synonymous nucleotide exchange at position 53 in exon 2 (G→A)
