HLA Polymorphisms in Southern African Populations
HLA is a powerful tool, as it is the most polymorphic genetic system known in man, determined by heredity in a known way, unchangeable during the life of an individual and observable by relatively simple blood...

DR3 (DRw17, DRw18): 2-D Gel Patterns
Six DR3 cell lines were included in the Workshop study (Table 1). Two-dimensional (2-D) gel patterns for both α chains and β chains were obtained using the panel of core monomorphic and selected polymorphic mo...

Unusual DR-DQ Haplotypes
The linkage disequilibrium existing between HLA-DR and DQ antigens is so strong that associations that do not follow the pattern appear as exceptions. In Caucasoids, the associations are well known: DQw1 is li...

Evolutions of the Immune System
Determining the relative importance of the elements of the immune sytem is a major task to which comparative studies may help first in pointing to key elements and second in suggesting their phylogenetic origi...

Antigen Society #26 Report (DR3, DR7, DQw2): Part 1
There were 1,019 cells analyzed in the Antigen Society (795 Caucasians, 202 Negroes, 22 Orientals); 1,011 were tested both on Core serology and Antigen Society reagents. The total number of sera and monoclonal...

DQw2: 2-D Gel Patterns
The pH gradient used in this study was not optimal for the two-dimensional (2-D) gel analysis of the DQβ chains from DQw2 cell lines. Therefore, only the most acidic, highly glycosylated form of this extremely...

DQw4 (Wa): 2-D Gel Patterns
DQw4 (Wa) is a class II specificity defined in the 10th Workshop as a fourth allele at the DQ locus. It is revealed serologically with the mouse monoclonal antibody Hu-46, which reacts with some DR4 and DRw8 h...

Antigen Society #2 Report (A25, A26, AW34, AW43 and AW66)
The HLA antigens A25, A26, AW34, AW43, and AW66 form a strongly cross-reacting group as most sera to these antigens react with two or more of these specificities. Monospecific sera against some of these specif...

Antigen Society #12 Report (Bw54, Bw55, Bw56 and Bw42)
The antigen Bw54 was officially designated as a split of Bw22 at the Seventh International Histocompatibility Workshop. This antigen was primarily defined in the Japanese population by several laboratories ind...

Antigen Society #18 Report (Cw4 and Cw6)
HLA-Cw4 (formerly T4, RH315) and HLA-Cw6 (formerly T7) obtained the formal HLA designation after the Sixth and Seventh International Histocompatibility Workshops respectively (1,2). Since then, it has been obs...

T Cell Differentiation in Lower Vertebrates
With all the recent advances in the study of T cell differentiation in mice, it is reasonable to question whether anything can be fetched from the examination of this problem in lower vertebrates. One obvious ...

DRw6 (DRw13, DRw14): 2-D Gel Patterns
DRw6 (DRw13,DRw14) haplotypes were previously considered to be the most enigmatic group of HLA class II specificities. This was largely due to the lack of monospecific anti-DRw6 alloantisera. Through the combi...

Antigen Society #25 Report DRw6, DRw13, DRw14)
Since the Ninth International Histocompatibility Workshop 1984, two splits of HLA-DRw6 have been recognized: DRw13 and DRw14(1). Both specificities were included in DRw52 and highly associated with DQw1. At th...

DQw1 (DQw5, DQw6): 2-D Gel Patterns
The HLA-DQw1 specificity was the first supertypic specificity recognized and was described at the 7th Workshop(1). Structural differences have been demonstrated between DQ molecules associated with DR1, DR2, a...

Chapter and Conference Paper
DRw52: 2-D Gel Patterns
The HLA-DRw52 specificity comprises a group of supertypic determinants, normally expressed on DR3, DR5, DRw6, and DRw8 positive cells, which can be detected by means of alloantisera (1), monoclonal antibodies ...

Antigen Society #7 Report (B8, w59, B14, w64, w65)
HLA B8 and HLA B14 have been well established specificities since 1965 (1) and 1970 (2), respectively. Bw59, restricted to the Oriental population, was defined in 1980 (3), and the B14 subtypes Bw64 and Bw65 w...

Polymorphism of HLA-DRB3 and DRB4 Genes Detected by RFLPs
All the characterized human HLA class II genes are encoded within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on the short arm of chromosome six. Among the five subregions of the class II region, HLA-DR is uniq...
