We have analyzed genomic DNA in a large number of independent examples of five HLA-DQw2-bearing extended haplotypes for their associated subtypes by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) using DRB, DQA, and DQB probes after Taq I and Pst I digestion and Southern blotting. In addition to three previously described HLA-DQw2 subtypes, DQw2a, DQw2b, and DQw2c, we observed a fourth subtype, HLA-DQw2d, characterized by 5.8 kilobase (kb) DRB/Taq I, 2.4, 2.3, and 1.8 kb DQB/Taq I, and 8.0 and 2.3 kb DQA/Pst I fragments. All 22 independent examples of the extended haplotype [HLA-B8,SCO1,DR3] carried DQw2a and all 11 independent examples of [HLA-B18,F1C30,DR3] carried DQw2b. In addition, all independent examples (21 and 4, respectively) of two DR7-carrying extended haplotypes, [HLA-B44,FC31,DR7] and [HLA-Bw47,FC91,0,DR7], carried DQw2c and all independent examples of [HLA-Bw57,SC61,DR7] carried DQw2d. Our results show that the DNA in the DR/DQ region of extended haplotypes is relatively fixed and that different DQw2 subtypes characterize different DQw2-bearing extended haplotypes. 相似文献

We have analyzed DNA sequence polymorphisms of DQ alpha and DQ beta chains from three haplotypes from the DRw52 family: DR5 DQw1 (FPA, GM3106), DRw6 DQw1 (CB6B, 10w9060), and DRw6 DQw3 (AMALA, 10w9064). The results indicate that the DR5 DQw1 and DRw6 DQw1 haplotypes have arisen by recombination between the DR beta 1 and DQ alpha loci. This contrasts with our previous analysis of DR4 DQ"Wa", DR3 DQ"Wa", and DR7 DQw3 haplotypes, all of which appear to have arisen by virtue of recombination between DQ alpha and DQ beta. Thus, there appear to be at least two different sites where recombination has occurred within the DR and DQ subregions. These differing patterns of recombination were interpreted in the context of the three major family groups of class II haplotypes, the DRw53, DRw52, and DR1/2 haplotype families. The data indicate that haplotypes from these family groups tend to undergo recombination at different locations. We propose that these differences in site of recombination are a reflection of differences in the molecular organization of the haplotypes belonging to each family group. 相似文献

Genomic DNA obtained from a B lymphoblastoid cell line was digested with appropriate restriction endonuclease and hybridized with several probes specific for genes encoding HLA-DQ. Southern hybridization with a DQA1 3'untranslated (UT) region probe showed DQ2-type hybridization pattern in DR7DQ3 haplotype. On the contrary, DQB1 3'UT probe showed DQ3-type pattern in the same haplotype. Gene cloning and DNA sequencing analysis revealed a repetitive sequence, (TG)19, between DQA1 and DQB1 gene in the DR7DQ3 haplotype. These results suggest that a recombination event has occurred near this potential Z-DNA structure in the haplotype, DR7DQ3. The 3'UT region probes of DQA1 and DQB1 genes failed to detect restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) differences between DR4DQ3 and DR4DQ4 haplotypes in this experiment, suggesting that the gene structure between DQA1 and DQB1 is conserved in these haplotypes. 相似文献

Molecular analysis of the HLA class II genes in two DRw6-related haplotypes, DRw13 DQw1 and DRw14 DQw3 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have compared the sequence polymorphism of HLA class II genes of two distinct DRw6 haplotypes. cDNA libraries were constructed from two lymphoblastoid cell lines: CB6B (10w9060) which types as DRw13 DQw1, and AMALA (10w9064) which types as DRw14 DQw3. Multiple sequence differences were found at the DR beta I, DQ alpha, and DQ beta loci when these two haplotypes were compared. The DR beta I allele found in the DRw14 DQw3 haplotype appears to have diverged primarily as a result of a gene conversion event with a DR1 allele acting as donor. In contrast, the DRw13 DQw1 haplotype appears to have arisen by means of a recombination event between the DR and DQ subregions. Thus, multiple genetic mechanisms, including point mutation, gene conversion, and recombination, have generated diversity among DRw6 haplotypes. 相似文献

T lymphocyte recognition of a celiac disease-associated cis- or trans-encoded HLA-DQ alpha/beta-heterodimer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
K E Lundin L M Sollid E Qvigstad G Markussen H A Gjertsen J Ek E Thorsby 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1990,145(1):136-139
The HLA-associated susceptibility to develop celiac disease may to a large extent be attributed to the combination of particular DQA1 and DQB1 genes, i.e., the DQA1*0501 and DBQB1*0201 alleles, located either in cis position (on the DR3DQw2 haplotype) or in trans position (DR5DQw7/DR7DQw2 heterozygous individuals). We report three alloreactive T lymphocyte clones that recognize an HLA-DQ alpha/beta heterodimer both when the DQA1*0501 and DQB1*0201 alleles are located in cis or in trans position. Thus, the celiac disease associated DQA1 and DQB1 genes encode a functionally expressed DQ alpha/beta heterodimer. 相似文献

In the genetically homogeneous Danish population, 27 HLA-DR3,4 heterozygous patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and 19 DR3,4 heterozygous controls without family history of IDDM were investigated for HLA-region markers and Gm and Km immunoglobulin allotypes. The aim was to define susceptibility factors for IDDM development other than HLA-DR using a number of techniques: lymphocytotoxicity (HLA-DR and DQ antigens), cellular methods (Dw and DP typing), restriction fragment length polymorphism (DQ alleles), electrophoresis and immunofixation (BF and C4 allotypes), and passive hemagglutination inhibition (Gm and Km immunoglobulin allotypes). The complement allotype C4A3 and the HLA-DQw8 (DQw3.2) antigen were found in all of the patients, whereas this was the case for only 8 of the 19 controls (P=6 x 10–6): five lacked C4A3, five others lacked DQw8, and one of the controls lacked both of these factors. Fourteen of the patients had the complement allotype C4B3 versus three of the controls (P=0.01). Previously reported family studies suggest that these alleles are part of the following haplotype: B15, BFS, C4A3, C4B3, DR4, Dw4, DQw8, and these factors were found together in ten of the patients versus one of the controls (P=0.01). The markers usually associated with DR3 did not show significant differences between IDDM patients and controls, and the non-HLA markers studied showed no significant deviation from what was expected. In addition to the susceptibility factor DQw8, the study suggests the existence of susceptibility genes for IDDM near the complement C4 genes on DR4-carrying haplotypes. Since recent works have shown that the structural gene for the monokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) is located between the HLA-B and C4 loci and that TNF- might be of importance in IDDM pathogenesis, the hypothesis is put forward that the C4-associated IDDM susceptibility reflects linkage dis-equilibrium between the C4 gene and a gene controlling TNF- production. The high relative risk for IDDM in HLA-DR3,4 heterozygotes might be explained by the combined action of IDDM-specific susceptibility genes on DR4 haplotypes and DR3-linked susceptibility genes associated with predisposition to autoimmunity. 相似文献

Narcolepsy has a 98% association with the DR2-Dw2/DQw1 haplotype. To establish if a disease-specific allele is present in narcolepsy, a cDNA library was made from a B-cell line from a DR2,4/DQw1,3 narcoleptic. Clones encoding the two expressed DR2
chains, along with DQw1 and chains, were isolated and completely sequenced. The coding regions of these four genes were similar to published nucleotide and protein sequences from corresponding healthy controls, with some minor exceptions. The 3 untranslated region of one of the DR2
genes in the narcoleptic was extended by 42 bp. Complete sequences were not available for DQw1.2 or from healthy individuals, but first domain nucleotide sequences showed only a single nonproductive difference in DQ. Partial protein sequences of both DQ and from published data were identical. Although the effects of minor differences cannot be ruled out completely, it is concluded that there are probably no narcolepsy-specific DR
or DQ / sequences, and that the alleles found in narcolepsy are representative of those found in the healthy population. 相似文献

Polymorphism of the HLA-D region in American blacks. A DR3 haplotype generated by recombination 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The polymorphism of HLA class II molecules in man is particularly evident when comparisons between population groups are made. This study describes a DR3 haplotype commonly present in the American black population. Unlike the Northern European population in which almost all DR3 individuals are DQw2, approximately 50% of DR3-positive American blacks express a serologically undefined DQ allelic product. DNA restriction fragment analysis with the use of several unrelated individuals and an informative family has allowed us to identify unique DQ alpha- and beta-fragments associated with the DR3, DQw- haplotype. Based on fragment size, the DQ alpha genes of the DR3, DQw- and DRw8, DQw- haplotypes are similar as are the DQ beta genes of DR3, DQw-; DRw8, DQw-; and DR4, DQw- haplotypes. In addition, a DX beta gene polymorphism has been identified which is associated with some DR3 haplotypes including the American black DR3, DQw- haplotype. cDNA sequence analysis has revealed a DQw2-like alpha gene and a DQ beta gene which is similar to that previously described for a DR4, DQw- haplotype. It is postulated that recombination between DQ alpha and DQ beta genes and between the DQ and DX subregions has generated the various DR3 haplotypes and has played an important role in creating diversity in the HLA-D region. 相似文献

Cells from a mouse B lymphoma were transfected by DQ alpha and DQ beta genes derived from a DR4 haplotype. Quantitatively, the resulting expression of human class II molecules was similar to that of human B lymphoblastoid cell lines. Qualitatively, the transformant class II molecules differed from normal class II molecules in their carbohydrate moiety. As for their antigenic specificity, they were shown to carry two determinants previously identified on DQ molecules controlled by DR4 haplotypes, i. e., DQw3 and DCHON. The transformant molecules did not carry a third DR4-associated specificity, DC5 (equivalent to TA10), and must possess a structure allelic to DC5. However, no corresponding alloantigenic specificity was detected by a screening of relevant alloantisera. 相似文献

Recombination between DQ alpha and DQ beta genes generates human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen class II haplotype diversity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Two major DR7 haplotypes have been defined on the basis of serologic typing: those that type as DQw2 and others that type as DQw3. In order to define the molecular basis for these serologic differences we have isolated and sequenced DQ alpha, DR beta I, and DQ beta cDNA clones from both representative haplotypes. These studies reveal that although the DQ alpha and DR beta I genes of both haplotypes are identical, the DQ beta genes are very different. These data suggest that the serologic differences of these two DR7 haplotypes are the result of a recombinational event that occurred between the DQ alpha and DQ beta genes. In addition, they emphasize the role of DQ recombination in generating "hybrid" HLA-DQ heterodimers. 相似文献

The same MHC recombinational hot spots are active in crossing-over between wild/wild and wild/inbred mouse chromosomes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Four recombinational breakpoints were mapped in the K-A interval of the mouse major histocompatibility complex (MHC) by Southern blot analysis. The breakpoint in B10.SBR, containing a b/s recombinant MHC haplotype, is located about 45 kb upstream of the A

The B18 C4A3 C4BQ0 BfF1 DR3 haplotype was found to be ideal for determining the order of C4 and Bf relative to HLA-B and DR by the haplotype method. All the copies of this haplotype are assumed to be derived from a single ancestral haplotype. Sixteen of the twenty-six BfFl-containing haplotypes carried all of the alleles from this ancestral haplotype. Most of the other BfFl-containing haplotypes could be derived from the ancestral haplotype by a single crossover event for one of the two possible gene orders. This suggests that B18 C4A3 C4BQ0 BfFl DR3 is the sole source of the BfFl allele. The uncommon C4 type on B18 C4A3 C4BQ0 BfFl DR3 facilitates recognition of the BfFl-containing products of recombination between Bf and C4. One such recombinant haplotype was found which shows that the orientation of the class III genes is as follows: C4 is closest to HLA-B and Bf is closest to HLA-DR. This gene order is supported by all the earlier unequivocal results obtained using the haplotype method (Olaisen et al. 1983, Marshall et al. 1984a). Combining these results with the information on class III genes obtained from overlapping cosmid clones (Carroll et al. 1984) and earlier mapping studies (Robson and Lamm 1984) shows that HLA-B is telomeric to 21B. C4B, 21A, C4A, Bf and C2 then follow 21B in that order covering 120 kb. HLA-DR is located further toward the centromere. 相似文献

In this study we report for the first time, the molecular analysis of HLA-DR and -DQ gene frequencies in a large cohort of well charaterized type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients (n=72), and ethnically matched controls (n=59) collected in subSaharan Africa. High molecular mass DNA was prepared and analyzed in Southern blots with DRBI, DQA1, and DQB1 probes. By identifying DR and DQ allele-specific restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs), we have shown a strong positive association between IDDM and the Asp 57–
DQB1 allele *0201 (DQw2). A rare DR4, DQw2 haplotype was also identified at high frequency in the IDDM cohort. We can now confirm that the association between Asp 57–DQB1 alleles and IDDM, previously reported in ethnically diverse cohorts collected in Western Europe, North America, and South Asia, is also present in an IDDM cohort collected in Africa. 相似文献

The restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of DQ
was assessed in a panel of control and insulin-dependent diabetes (IDD) patients who were serologically typed as HLA-DR4 homozygotes or HLA-DR3, DR4 heterozygotes. Digestions of genomic DNA with Barn HI, Bg1 II, Pst I, Xba I, and Hind III revealed a total of 15 RFLPs in the panel of 71 HLA-DR4 chromosomes. These RFLPs were organized into six allelic groups on the basis of segregation analysis in families. Complete RFLP haplotypes for the 5 restriction enzymes could be constructed for 42 of the HLA-DR4 chromosomes. This analysis revealed 18 RFLP haplotypes of DQ
associated with the DR4 chromosomes tested. Two of these haplotypes, designated DQ3.DR4.a and DQ3.DR4.b, accounted for over 50 % of the DR4 chromosomes analyzed. These two haplotypes were antithetical for the RFLPs detected by all five enzymes, indicating that they represent very distinct forms of DQ
. The remaining 16 haplotypes were infrequent or unique and were closely related to either a DQ3.DR4.a or DQ3.DR4.b. Two of the RFLPs detected, a 5.8 kb Bg1 II fragment and a 10.5 kb Barn HI fragment, had increased frequencies in disease-associated chromosomes. However, none of the RFLPs we detected exhibited a statistically significant increase in IDD or control populations. In contrast, the DQ3.DR4.b DQ
haplotype was significantly decreased in IDD-associated DR4 chromosomes. (P=0.04). These results suggest that the DQ3.DR4.b DQ
allele may be protective for the development of IDD. 相似文献

HLA-C loci frequently have an unclassifiable blank (CwBL) specificity. It is unclear whether HLA-C specificities associated with the haplotypes of A24 Bw52 CwBL DR2 DQw1 and Aw33 B44 CwBL DRw13 DQw1 in Japanese (tentatively named Cx52 and Cx44, respectively) really exist. Southern hybridization experiments revealed that restriction enzyme-cleaved genomic DNA from AKIBA, consanguineous HLA homozygote, two other homozygotes with the former haplotype, and three homozygous cells with the latter haplotype hybridized strongly with an HLA-C-specific probe. We have screened the cDNA library constructed from AKIBA to isolate cDNA clones encoding the putative Cx52 antigen, and picked up 103 cDNA clones with HLA-class I DNA probes as possible candidates. By restriction enzyme mapping and Southern hybridization of selected clones, we identified three isotypes of cDNA clones, pA01, pB55, and pC68, which appeared to encode A24, Bw52, and Cx52, respectively. The nucleotide sequence of pC68 showed higher homology with exons of the HLA-C gene than with those of the HLA-A and HLA-B genes, especially in exons 6–8 which include the HLA-C-specific region. Comparison of amino acid sequences showed more than 86% homology among Cw1, Cw2, Cw3, and new pC68-encoded Cx52 proteins. These results support the notion that the inability to define C antigens serologically in this Cx52 haplotype is not due to a HLA-C gene deletion or mutation, but to the absence of typing sera. 相似文献

Fifty-six unrelated Japanese patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were HLA-typed, and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was performed after enzyme digestion with Bam HI and Taq I by using both DR and DQ probes. As previously reported, increased frequencies of Bw54, Cw1, DR4, and DRw53, which are in strong linkage disequilibrium in the Japanese population and make the characteristic Japanese haplotype, were confirmed. DQw4, a new allele of the DQ system recognized by the monoclonal antibody HU-46 and in linkage disequilibrium with this haplotype, presented the highest IDDM association. The RFLP analysis also showed the strongest correlation to IDDM when the DQ probe was applied. These results indicate that HLA-DQ might play the most important role in the development of IDDM in Japanese as well as in Caucasians. The correlation of DQ amino acid sequences strongly associated with IDDM in Japanese are discussed in this study, and contrasting results were found when such sequences were compared with those of Caucasians.Abbreviations used in this paper IDDM

Previous studies of HLA-restricted antigen recognition by cloned T cells have frequently demonstrated reactivity that did not correlate precisely with the expression of serologically defined HLA specificities. To further explore such discrepancies, we utilized monoclonal antibody (MoAb) blocking, partial NH2-terminal amino acid sequencing, and Southern blot hybridization techniques to analyze the fine specificity of four autologous trinitrophenyl-specific T cell lines restricted to DR2-linked epitopes. MoAb blocking studies demonstrated that two of these lines recognized determinants on DR molecules while the other two recognized determinants on the same molecule that expresses the DQw1 determinant. However, these latter two lines appeared to recognize a DQw1-related determinant found primarily in association with DR2, but not the other DQw1-associated DR alleles, DR1 and DRw6. To ascertain whether these lines were defining a functional split of DQw1, we performed partial NH2-terminal amino acid sequencing of the molecules precipitated with a DQw1-specific MoAb (Genox 3.53) from different stimulator lines. The results showed that these T cell lines recognized a subtype of DQw1 that is in linkage disequilibrium with DR2. Moreover, we identified characteristic restriction fragment length polymorphisms with a DQ
-specific cDNA that correlated with stimulatory capacity for the DQw1-restricted lines. These results demonstrate that: (1) DQ molecules may provide restriction determinants that are incorrectly assigned to DR molecules on stimulator panel analyses; (2) cloned antigen-specific T cell lines recognize polymorphic regions of class II molecules not distinguished by either conventional typing antisera or xenogeneic MoAb; and (3) the DQw1 epitope(s) is located on a heterogeneous group of DQ molecules that differ from each other in the primary sequence of their chains.Abbreviations used in this paper ATCC

T-lymphocyte clones specific for the influenza A/Texas virus were obtained by limiting dilution of activated T cells from an HLA A2/3, B7/39, Cw -/-, DR2-short/2 short, DQw1/w1, DwFJO/FJO donor. Among the proliferating clones studied, and irrespective of their antigenic specificities, most of them were restricted by epitope(s) on HLA-DR molecules present only on DR2-short/DwFJO cells but not on DR2-negative or DR2-long positive (Dw2, Dw12, Dw-) cells. Two clones were restricted by epitopes borne by DQ products. Here again, these epitopes were present on DR2-short/DwFJO but not on DR2-long, DQw1 (Dw2, Dw12) cells, indicating that the DQwl molecules of DR2-long and DR2-short haplotypes are different. Taken together, these results indicate that the DR2-short, DwFJO haplotype is characterized by both HLA-DR- and DQ-specific molecules. Finally, one clone was restricted by an epitope shared by DR products from DR2 short/DwFJO, DRw11, and DRw13 haplotypes. This latter functional determinant has never been described until now.Abbreviations used in this paper APC

Recombinational hotspot specific to female meiosis in the mouse major histocompatibility complex 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Thewm7 haplotype of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), derived from the Japanese wild mouseMus musculus molossinus, enhances recombination specific to female meiosis in theK/A
interval of the MHC. We have mapped crossover points of fifteen independent recombinants from genetic crosses of thewm7 and laboratory haplotypes. Most of them were confined to a short segment of approximately 1 kilobase (kb) of DNA between theA
3 andA
2 genes, indicating the presence of a female-specific recombinational hotspot. Its location overlaps with a sex-independent hotspot previously identified in theMus musculus castaneus CAS3 haplotype. We have cloned and sequenced DNA fragments surrounding the hotspot from thewm7 haplotype and the corresponding regions from the hotspot-negative B10.A and C57BL/10 strains. There is no significant difference between the sequences of these three strains, or between these and the published sequences of the CAS3 and C57BL/6 strains. However, a comparison of this A3/A2 hotspot with a previously characterized hotspot in theE gene revealed that they have a very similar molecular organization. Each hotspot consists of two elements, the consensus sequence of the mouse middle repetitive MT family and the tetrameric repeated sequences, which are separated by 1 kb of DNA.The nucleotide sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to the DNA Data Bank of Japan nucleotide sequence database and have been assigned the accession numbers d90007-9.

Molecular mapping class II polymorphisms in the human major histocompatibility complex. II. DQ beta 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The restriction fragment length polymorphisms have been determined for six restriction enzymes (Bam HI, Bg1 II, Eco RI, Hinc II, Hind III, and Pvu II) and a DQ beta probe on 25 cell lines that are homozygous by consanguinuity at the MHC. These patterns reflect both DR haplotypes and DQ types of the cells tested. At least one non-polymorphic band is present in all the cell lines with every restriction enzyme except Hinc II. This band most probably represents DX beta hybridization. The polymorphic bands indicate that more polymorphism exists in the DQ subregion than is predicted serologically. Each DR haplotype is associated with a unique set of restriction fragments except for DR2 and DR6. The patterns are largely consistent within each DR haplotype. In addition, some bands reflect the established DQ specificities DQw1 and DQw2. Individual bands can be identified that are unique to the haplotypes DR1, DR4, DR5, and DR6 and the DQw1- and DQw2-associated haplotypes. Subdivisions of haplotypes can be identified with this probe. In particular, MVL (DR1), Akiba (DR2), QBL (DR3), FPF (DR5), and APD (DR6) have polymorphisms that distinguish them from other members of their DR haplotype. 相似文献
