ABSTRACT:
We have found a novel subtype DRw14c and sequenced the nucleotide sequence thereof. DRw14 associated genes can be genetically typed at the DNA level using DRB1-14c sequence specific oligonucleotide probes such as F142 and F144 of the invention. The present invention overcomes the disadvantages of serological typing and provides a reagent that determines a type of a HLA-DR antigen. More specifically, the invention provides an oligonucleotide probe capable of identifying subtypes of a HLA-DR antigen precisely and a reagent containing the oligonucleotide probe. Furthermore, the invention provides a method of detecting a novel HLA-DR antigen.
