HLA. 2019 Feb;93(2-3):89-96. doi: 10.1111/tan.13439. Epub 2019 Jan 6.
We discovered a new HLA-B allele, HLA-B44:138Q, and confirmed its segregation. For characterisation, we used serology, sequence specific oligonucleotide (SSO), sequence specific primer (SSP), and full length sequencing by Sanger and next-generation sequencing. From an evolutionary point the 5' part of the new allele is identical with alleles from the HLA-B44:02 group, while its 3' part is identical to the HLA-B*15:18:01:02 allele, the breakpoint being located somewhere between intron 3 and exon 4. The salient feature of the new allele is a deletion of codon 94 in exon 3, which is unique for HLA-alleles reported so far. Gene conversion can be hypothesised in the generation of this HLA sequence; however, the deletion seems to have occurred additionally. Other HLA-alleles of the new allele's haplotype were common alleles.
我们发现了一个新的 HLA-B 等位基因 HLA-B44:138Q，并确认了其分离。为了进行特征描述，我们使用了血清学、序列特异性寡核苷酸（SSO）、序列特异性引物（SSP）以及 Sanger 法的全长测序和下一代测序。从进化的角度来看，新等位基因的 5'部分与 HLA-B44:02 组的等位基因相同，而其 3'部分与 HLA-B*15:18:01:02 等位基因相同，断点位于 3 号内含子和 4 号外显子之间。该新等位基因的显著特征是外显子 3 中密码子 94 的缺失，这是迄今为止报道的 HLA 等位基因所特有的。在该 HLA 序列的产生中可以假设基因转换，但似乎另外发生了缺失。该新等位基因的单体型的其他 HLA 等位基因是常见的等位基因。
