[With genechip technique to investigate HLA-DQB1 gene polymorphisms in south and north regions of China].

Objective: To research and compare HLA-DQB1 gene frequency(GF) and polymorphism distribution between south and north population of Chinese in China.
Methods: Combining PCR-sequence specific primers(SSP) and sequence specific oligonucleotide probe(SSOP) techniques and DNA Microarray Kit for HLA-DQB1 Low Res Genotyping from Shenzhen Yi-Shengtang Biological LTD. Co. was used to type HLA-DQB1 gene polymorphisms of 700 individuals living in south China and 320 individuals in north China.
Results: We inspected 10 alleles of HLA-DQB1 and got a series of comprehensive and accurate statistic data.
Conclusion: It is tested that HLA-DQB1*02, 05, 0601, 0602, 0603 gene frequencies are different obviously(P<0.05) between south and north Chinese. And those data will be useful to kinds of research associated with disease relevant and anthropology research.
