title: Identification of two new HLA-DRB1 alleles, DRB1*1138 and DRB1*1344.
abstract: Two new HLA-DRB1 alleles have been identified by sequencing based typing (SBT). HLA-DRB1*1138 and DRB1*1344 were discovered after following up ambiguous results involving unusual alleles after DRB1 generic typing.
