We have established a DNA typing system for the HLA-B5 serologically cross-reactive group (CREG) by means of a two-step PCR amplification with nested sequence-specific primers (nPCR-SSP). The present study provides a low resolution definition of the HLA-B5 CREG, i.e. identifying polymorphism equivalent to serology. Two different primer combinations allow group-specific amplification of all HLA-B5 CREG alleles and other related HLA class I alleles from genomic DNA. The amplified DNA is subjected to a second amplification step using eleven nested primer pairs. This assay permits the detection of the HLA-B5 CREG specificities B35, B51, B52, B53, and B7801 in all homozygous and heterozygous combinations. Sensitivity and specificity as judged by a blind quality control study investigating a reference panel (n = 50) is 100%. Extension of this approach should allow rapid DNA typing of all serologically defined HLA-B specificities by nPCR-SSP.
我们通过使用巢式序列特异性引物的两步聚合酶链反应(nPCR - SSP)建立了一种针对HLA - B5血清学交叉反应组(CREG)的DNA分型系统。本研究提供了HLA - B5 CREG的低分辨率定义,即识别与血清学等效的多态性。两种不同的引物组合可从基因组DNA中对所有HLA - B5 CREG等位基因和其他相关的HLA I类等位基因进行组特异性扩增。扩增的DNA使用11对巢式引物对进行第二步扩增。该检测方法能够检测所有纯合和杂合组合中的HLA - B5 CREG特异性B35、B51、B52、B53和B7801。通过对一个参考样本组(n = 50)进行的盲法质量控制研究判断,其灵敏度和特异性均为100%。扩展这种方法应能通过nPCR - SSP对所有血清学定义的HLA - B特异性进行快速DNA分型。
