Abstract
We describe a standardized, highly sensitive, nonradioactive detection procedure for HLA class-II typing of DQA1 alleles and suballeles whic h has important and cost-effective application in studying HLA disease associations. The procedure involves polymerase chain reaction-based target DNA sequence amplification and dot blotting followed by stringe nt hybridization with digoxigenin-11-dideoxyuridine triphosphate 3'-en d-labelled allele-specific oligonucleotide probes. The dual detection system described here makes this procedure very versatile.
