title: Characterization of the novel HLA-A*3217 allele in two Caucasian Spanish donors.
abstract: A novel human leukocyte antigen-A allele, officially named A*3217, was found in two unrelated Spanish donors. A*3217 differs from A*320101 in a point mutation at codon 70 (CAC-->CAG), generating an amino acid substitution of His to Gln.
