Nomenclature for Factors of the HLA System, 2004

Abstract

The following sequences have been submitted to the Nomenclature Committee since the May 2002 nomenclature update and, followingagreed policy, have been assigned official allele designations. Full details of all sequences will be published in a forthcoming report.Below are listed the newly assigned sequences, confirmations of previously reported sequences and some sequences which are correc-tions of those originally reported. The accession number of each sequence is given and these can be used to retrieve the sequence filesfrom either the EMBL, GenBank or DDBJ data libraries. Although accession numbers have been assigned by the data libraries and mostsequences are already available, there is still the possibility that an author may not yet have allowed the sequence to be released, in sucha case you will have to contact the submitting author directly.
