Abstract:
HLA-A*9250 allele was identified by SBT in a Caucasian bone marrow donor. It differs from the closest A*020101 by only one nucleotide (A-->G) at position 124 in exon 2 (Arg to Gly at codon 18); this is an uncommon variation at a highly conserved nucleotide position, located on the loop between S1-S2 beta-sheets in alpha1 domain.

Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants
Bone marrow transplant is a potential cure for several diseases, including cancer and specific genetic disorders. Notably, this procedure is applicable for patients suffering from aplastic anemia, certain types of leukemia, severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, sickle-cell disease, and certain cancers.

Tissue Transplantation
Tissue transplantation is a significant medical procedure involving the transfer of cells, tissues, or organs from a donor to a recipient, with the primary aim of restoring lost functions. This procedure is crucial in treating a broad spectrum of diseases, including kidney diseases, liver failure, heart disease, and certain types of cancers.
