Summary
A novel HLA‐A29 (HLA‐A*2916) allele has been identified in a Caucasian man from Middle Europe using single‐allele‐specific sequencing strategy. This allele is identical to the HLA‐A*29010101 allele except for one point mutation in the putatively conserved codon 128 (GAG→CAG) resulting in an amino acid exchange from glutamic acid (E) to glutamine (Q).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
