Additional information
The name B *4406 was officially assigned by the WHO Nomenclature Committee in February 1995. This follows the agreed policy that, subject to the conditions stated in the most recent Nomenclature Report (Bodmer et al. 1994), names will be assigned to new sequences as they are identified. Lists of such new names will be published in the following WHO Nomenclature Report. The nucleotide sequences reported in this Papers have been submitted to the EMBL nucleotide sequence database and have been assigned the accession numbers X83400 (HLA-B promoter region), X83401 (exon 1), X83402 (exon 2), and X83403 (exon 3)
