HLA-DQ structural polymorphism in HLA-DR2 associated HLA-D clusters.
Three homozygous cell lines with different cellular HLA-D specificities associated with HLA-DR2 including Dw2, Dw12, DB9 displayed structural variation in the products of the DQ locus. Nonglycosylated precursor polypeptides of DQ molecules immunoprecipitated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D gel) revealed distinct differences in the patterns of DQ alpha and DQ beta chains.
