The Novel HLA‐C*07:1217 Allele Identified by Next‐Generation Sequencing

Key Points

• To identify and describe the novel HLA-C*07:1217 allele.
• Utilized next-generation sequencing to analyze HLA alleles.
• Compared HLA-C*07:1217 allele to HLA-C*07:02:01:01.
• HLA-C*07:1217 differs from HLA-C*07:02:01:01 by a single nucleotide substitution.
• The substitution involves a C to G change at position 194 in exon 2.
