Description of the new allele HLA-DQB1*04:03:02.
A new variant of HLA-DQB1*04:03 allele officially designated as HLA-DQB1*04:03:02 was detected in two unrelated Caucasoid individuals by polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific primers and SBT. The new allele nucleotide sequence differs from HLA-DQB1*04:03:01 for a single silent point mutation in exon 2 at position 159, codon 21.
