Abstract:
A novel A*6836 allele was completely characterized by sequence-based typing (SBT) in a cord blood sample from an Ecuadorian donor. A*6836 discloses six clustered amino acid residue changes at the alpha-1 domain, codons 76-83, regarding its closer A*680102 allele. Therefore, A*6836 would be a new human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A molecule showing a Bw4-epitope.
