The technique of universal heteroduplex generator (UHG) crossmatching has been developed to permit comparison of HLA-DPB1 alleles between two or more individuals. It offers a rapid and simple method of screening prospective bone marrow donors for HLA-DPB1 compatibility with the recipient. We present the nucleotide sequence and describe the method of construction of the DPB1 UHG. To test its effectiveness, 56 patient-bone marrow donor pairs previously HLA-DPB1-typed by PCR-SSO probing, were tested by UHG crossmatching. In 52/56 (93%) pairs there was concordance between PCR-SSO typing and UHG crossmatching. All 32 pairs that were defined as mismatched by PCR-SSO typing were also mismatched by UHG crossmatching. We conclude that UHG crossmatching is a simple, sensitive, and cost effective method of HLA-DPB1 matching for the rapid selection of compatible bone marrow donors.

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories. Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D009692 Nucleic Acid Heteroduplexes Double-stranded nucleic acid molecules (DNA-DNA or DNA-RNA) which contain regions of nucleotide mismatches (non-complementary). In vivo, these heteroduplexes can result from mutation or genetic recombination; in vitro, they are formed by nucleic acid hybridization. Electron microscopic analysis of the resulting heteroduplexes facilitates the mapping of regions of base sequence homology of nucleic acids.

D009841 Oligonucleotides Polymers made up of a few (2-20) nucleotides. In molecular genetics, they refer to a short sequence synthesized to match a region where a mutation is known to occur, and then used as a probe (OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PROBES). (Dorland, 28th ed) Oligonucleotide
D006650 Histocompatibility Testing Identification of the major histocompatibility antigens of transplant DONORS and potential recipients, usually by serological tests. Donor and recipient pairs should be of identical ABO blood group, and in addition should be matched as closely as possible for HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in order to minimize the likelihood of allograft rejection.

D006682 HLA-DP Antigens A group of the D-related HLA antigens (human) found to differ from the DR antigens in genetic locus and therefore inheritance. These antigens are polymorphic glycoproteins comprising alpha and beta chains and are found on lymphoid and other cells, often associated with certain diseases.
