Abstract

Three new HLA class I alleles were described in the Chinese population. HLA-B*46:68,-B*46:71,-B*46:72 alleles differ from HLA-B*46:01:01 by a single nucleotide substitution at position 485C>T, 484A>G, 299T>A respectively.

Keywords: HLA-B; new allele; polymerase chain reaction sequence-based typing.
