Identification of the MICA*070 allele by sequencing and phasing.

ABSTRACT: A novel MICA allele, MICA*070, was defined by sequencing. The new allele differs from the MICA*008:04 sequence in exon 2, encoding a C instead of G corresponding to cDNA nucleotide position 183. This nucleotide substitution is predicted to encode serine instead of arginine at residue 38 of the α1 domain of the MICA molecule.
