Description of a new HLA-DRB1*1104, DRB1*110403

We report here the exon 2 sequence of the novel HLA-DRB1*110403 which differs from DRB1*110401 by a single synonymous nucleotide substitution at codon 78, where TAC is substituted by TAT. The variant originally identified in a Caucasoid individual was confirmed by cloning and sequencing.
