A new HLA-B*5124 variant, B*512402 allele, identified by sequence-based typing.
A novel human leukocyte antigen-B allele, officially named B*512402, was identified in a Korean bone marrow donor. The B*512402 allele shows two nucleotide substitutions compared with B*512401 in exon 3 at codons 135 (GCG --> GCC) and 138 (ACC --> ACG) without any amino acid substitution.
