Identification of a novel HLA-B*40 allele, HLA-B*4071, by sequence-based typing
Abstract
HLA-B*4071 allele shows six nucleotides difference from B*4005 allele in exon 3 at nucleotides 419A>T, 420C>A, 463C>A, 477C>G, 486G>C and 527A>T, resulting in three amino acid changes Tyr116Leu, Arg131Ser and Glu152Val.
