DRB108 haplotypes have not been known to carry a DRB3 gene. We have found a patient suffering from liver disease who has a novel HLA haplotype of DRB10801 with DRB3*0202 as established by family segregation. These two genes were confirmed by sequencing. DR8 and DR52 antigen specificities were serologically detected, indicating expression of these genes.
