Identification of the Novel HLA‐B*38:126 Allele by Next‐Generation Sequencing

Key Points

• To identify a novel HLA-B allele variant and its specific genetic changes.
• Utilized next-generation sequencing
• Focused on exon 7
• Analyzed nucleotide variations
• Identified HLA-B*38:126 allele
• Confirmed it differs from HLA-B*38:02:02:01 by one nucleotide change in codon 325
