HLA-D typing in Austria. A panel study using 26 newly defined homozygous typing cells. 1987

A Hajek-Rosenmayr, and G Obergruber, and W R Mayr

A panel of 120 HLA-A, -B, -C and -DR typed Austrians has been typed for HLA-D by the use of 26 Homozygous Typing Cells (HTC). The new Austrian HTC, partly defined by the 9th International Histocompatibility Workshop (9WS), partly by a checkerboard experiment with internationally well defined reference HTC, type for HLA-Dw1 to -Dw7 and an obviously new, so far unknown HLA-DR2 related HLA-D determinant. Associations of HLA-DR and HLA-D antigens in Austria and their frequencies are determined. Antigen frequencies in Austria are compared to frequencies in other Caucasoid populations.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D005787	Gene Frequency	The proportion of one particular in the total of all ALLELES for one genetic locus in a breeding POPULATION.	Allele Frequency,Genetic Equilibrium,Equilibrium, Genetic,Allele Frequencies,Frequencies, Allele,Frequencies, Gene,Frequency, Allele,Frequency, Gene,Gene Frequencies
D006681	HLA-D Antigens	Human immune-response or Class II antigens found mainly, but not exclusively, on B-lymphocytes and produced from genes of the HLA-D locus. They are extremely polymorphic families of glycopeptides, each consisting of two chains, alpha and beta. This group of antigens includes the -DR, -DQ and -DP designations, of which HLA-DR is most studied; some of these glycoproteins are associated with certain diseases, possibly of immune etiology.

D006684	HLA-DR Antigens	A subclass of HLA-D antigens that consist of alpha and beta chains. The inheritance of HLA-DR antigens differs from that of the HLA-DQ ANTIGENS and HLA-DP ANTIGENS.	HLA-DR,Antigens, HLA-DR,HLA DR Antigens
D006720	Homozygote	An individual in which both alleles at a given locus are identical.	Homozygotes

D001317	Austria	A country located in Central Europe, north of Italy and Slovenia. The capital is Vienna.
