title: A novel polymorphism in the pseudogene TCRBV5S5 combines with TCRBV6S1 to define three haplotypes.
abstract: In the current study, we report a G to A single nucleotide polymorphism at base pair 396 of the TCRBV5S5P gene. This polymorphism has a frequency of 0.20 in a cohort of Caucasian controls. In addition, we provide evidence for linkage disequilibrium between TCRBV5S5P and the TCRBV6S1 gene.
