The novel allele HLA-DQA1*05:05:10 was detected in a Nigerian who also lacks the DRB5 gene in the DRB1*16 haplotype

Abstract

One synonymous nucleotide substitution in exon 2 of DQA1*05:05:01:13 results in a novel allele, HLA-DQA1*05:05:10.

Keywords: DR51 absent; HLA-DQA1; HLA-DR16; next generation sequencing.
