Abstract:
We have identified a new human leukocyte antigen-C allele in a Caucasian potential stem-cell donor. The new allele is identical to the other Cw*05 alleles in exon 2 but differs from Cw*0501 and *0503 at nucleotide position 379 in exon 3, where a C is substituted with a G. This results in an amino acid substitution from leucine to valine at residue 103 in alpha2 helix.
