Identification of the Novel HLA‐A*30:238 Allele by Next‐Generation Sequencing

Key Points

• The aim is to identify the novel HLA-A*30:238 allele and its genetic characteristics.
• Utilized next-generation sequencing to analyze the HLA-A gene.
• Compared the allele sequences to existing HLA-A alleles.
• Identified nucleotide substitutions to characterize the novel allele.
• Discovered HLA-A*30:238 with a single nucleotide substitution.
• Identified a G>T substitution at position 335 compared to A*30:01:01:01.
