HLA‐A*02:1227 and HLA‐A*36:16N , Two Novel HLA ‐A Alleles Identified in Brazilian Bone Marrow Donors

Key Points

• The research aims to identify new HLA-A alleles in Brazilian bone marrow donors to improve transplant outcomes.
• Identified novel HLA-A alleles in a population of Brazilian bone marrow donors.
• Utilized molecular techniques to analyze genetic material from donors.
• Discovered two new alleles: HLA-A*02:1227 and HLA-A*36:16N.
• These alleles may improve matching in bone marrow transplants.
