We describe a standardized, highly sensitive, nonradioactive detection procedure for HLA class-II typing of DQA1 alleles and suballeles which has important and cost-effective application in studying HLA disease associations. The procedure involves polymerase chain reaction-based target DNA sequence amplification and dot blotting followed by stringent hybridization with digoxigenin-11-dideoxyuridine triphosphate 3'-end-labelled allele-specific oligonucleotide probes. The dual detection system described here makes this procedure very versatile.

D011110	Polymorphism, Genetic	The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D004076	Digoxigenin	3 beta,12 beta,14-Trihydroxy-5 beta-card-20(22)-enolide. A cardenolide which is the aglycon of digoxin. Can be obtained by hydrolysis of digoxin or from Digitalis orientalis L. and Digitalis lanata Ehrh.	Lanadigenin
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.
