HLA-DRB1, DQB1 and DPB1 polymorphism in the Naxi ethnic group of South-western China.
Polymorphism of HLA-DRB1, DQB1 and DPB1 was revealed with a sequencing-based typing (SBT) method in unrelated healthy volunteers from the Naxi ethnic group. Among the 43 DRB1 alleles detected, the most common allele was DRB1*12021 with a frequency of 17%, followed by DRB1*08032, DRB1*09012 and DRB1*1404 with frequencies of 8.5%, 7.4% and 7.4%, respectively. Among 23 DQB1 alleles detected, the most frequent DQB1 allele was DQB1*03011/0309 (21.9%), followed by DQB1*0502 (16.4%) and DQB1*05031 (9.6%). For the DPB1 locus, the most common alleles were DPB1*0501 (25.5%), DPB1*0402 (14.6%) and DPB1*02012 (12.0%). The most common DRB1-DQB1-DPB1 haplotype was DRB1*1404-DQB1*05031-DPB1*0402 with a frequency of 5.26%, followed by the DRB1*08032-DQB1*06011-DPB1*1301 (3.51%). The distribution characteristics of the HLA class II alleles revealed that the Naxi ethnic group belonged to the Southern group of Chinese.
