A novel HLA-DRB1*15 allelic sequence isolated from the Han population of Guangdong, China.
A novel DRB1*15 allele, DRB1*1516, has been identified in a Guangdong Han individual. Its sequence was confirmed by sequencing of polymerase chain reaction products and clones. This allele differed by one nucleotide from DRB1*150101 at position 220 (G-->A), resulting in an amino acid substitution from Gly to Arg at codon 45.
