HLA-A*3306, a novel variant in the Indian population.
We describe a new HLA-A allele, A*3306, which was identified by sequencing based typing (SBT) in an individual of Indian origin. A*3306 is similar to A*3303, with a difference at position 228 (A to G). This difference leads to an amino-acid change at codon 52 from Ile (ATA) to Met (ATG). Until now this position has been considered conserved.
