    Notes: Many new Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) genes have been discovered in the last 5 years. Defining the polymorphism of these new genes may elucidate their function and their relevance to diseases with MHC associations. Polymerase chain reaction and single stranded conformation polymorphism (PCR SSCP) analyses were used to detect sequence polymorphisms of PERB1 demonstrated by comparing the available genomic sequence of four haplotypes. This study showed that PCR SSCP of PERB 1 is reproducible. In addition, PERB1 alleles segregate within families together with MHC haplotypes. Typing results from the Forth Asia and Oceania Histocompatibility Workshop (4AOHW) cell panel indicate that the identified polymorphisms of PERB 1 are ‘haplotypic’, i.e., unrelated individuals carrying the same MHC ancestral haplotypes carry the same PERB1 SSCP pattern. Interestingly, PERB1 SSCP patterns allow the distinction of ancestral haplotypes which share HLA-B serological specificities, such as HLA-B44 and therefore this analysis can be used to further define MHC haplotypes and thus to improve our understanding of the evolution of this complex.

    ANCESTRAL HAPLOTYPES CARRY HAPLOTYPIC AND HAPLOSPECIFIC POLYMORPHISMS OF BAT1: POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE (1992)

    Notes: The human BAT1 gene, located in the central MHC region (–170kb centrometric of HLA-B), is polymorphic and the polymorphism correlates with MHC ancestral haplotypes. Allelic RFLP patterns have been assigned to several ancestral haplotypes and have been shown to be ‘haplotypic’ (i.e. found on all examples of the same ancestral haplotype) and in some cases ‘haplospecific’ (i.e. unique to one ancestral haplotype). The relevance of the BAT1 polymorphism to susceptibility to Myasthenia Gravis (MG) has been investigated. The frequency of the BAT1 B allelic pattern is increased in patients with MG (n= 16) compared to an equal number of control subjects. The increase is due to the association between MG and the 8.1 ancestral haplotype (HLA A1, Cw7, B8, BfS, C4AQ0, C4B1, DR3, DQw2).

    ANALYSIS OF THE MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX MICROSATELLITE CL1 IN DIFFERENT HUMAN HAPLOTYPES (1996)

    Notes: Characterization of the region between HLA-B and the TNF loci in the human MHC revealed the presence of duplicated loci, named CL1 and CL2, that included repeat sequences. Development and use of a PCR typing methodology that amplified both CL microsatellites simultaneously indicated that PCR product patterns analysed on native agarose gels were allelic (Abraham et al., 1992). The purpose of the current study was to determine the molecular explanation for the unique patterns achieved. Sequence analysis of the CL1 locus from 32 chromosomes representing 10 ancestral haplotypes indicated that six alleles were present. The CL microsatellites also provided an opportunity to study the evolutionary relationships between MHC haplotypes from different racial groups. Sequence comparison of closely related ancestral haplotypes from different racial groups suggested that the CL1 microsatellite has not changed in the period since divergence.

    Notes: Abstract  The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) contains at least a hundred genes over 4 megabases of DNA. Within the MHC there are several new multigene families which have been recently described. PERB11 is a multigene family which occurs over the class I and central region of the MHC. Two members of the family have been shown to be functional and share domains with members of the supergene family including HLA class I, FcRn, and Zn-α2-glycoprotein molecules. The two functional members are contained within an area of the MHC which has been associated with increased susceptibility to autoimmune diseases such as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and also rapid progression to AIDS following HIV-1 infection. Intralocus and interlocus differences between PERB11.1 and PERB11.2 include: (1) several nucleotide substitutions leading to amino acid changes; (2) presence and absence of potential glycosylation sites; (3) insertions and deletions leading to a frame shift resulting in diversity at the amino acid level and an early termination signal. There are ten different alleles of PERB11.1 including one allele which contains a frame shift in the transmembrane region causing a putative truncated molecule lacking the cytoplasmic tail. The significance of this polymorphism in disease associations is under investigation. The most divergent domain is the transmembrane region when PERB11.1 and PERB11.2 are compared. The results suggest that these two molecules may have different functions.

    Large transcripts and sequence from a polymorphic 170 kb MHC region implicated in susceptibility to autoimmune disease (1994)

    Notes: Abstract We have used the novel strategy of overlapping ye yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clones to localize a series of new transcripts within a 170 kb region of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC), containing genes likely to be of importance for disease susceptibility. Using cloned genomic probes we have further localized these transcripts to a region 15 kilobases (kb) centromeric of HLA-B. In the liver there are at least four transcripts ranging in size between 7.5 kb and 3.4 kb, while in the lung two trancripts of 5.8 kb and 4.2 kb are detected. The possible implications of these transcripts for autoimmune disease are discussed, given that they are located in a region previously shown to be of importance for susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and myasthenia gravis. Furthermore, we conclude that YACs as large as 360 kb are able to be used as probes to identify new transcripts and that the MHC region between HLA-B and BATI is the site of a large multiply spliced gene, provisionally designated PERB6.
