Claims11
A method for determining the allelic group of KIR2DL1 alleles in a subject, comprising:
- (a) performing PCR reactions in a genomic DNA sample obtained from the subject with
- (i) a first reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 4 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 4011 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a first forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 3 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 3680 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a first amplification product, if present;
- (ii) a second reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 6 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5820 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a second forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 5 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5499 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a second amplification product, if present;
- (iii) a third reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 8 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 13609 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a third forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 7 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 13420 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a third amplification product, if present;
- (iv) a fourth reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 10 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5735 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a fourth forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 9 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5499 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a fourth amplification product, if present;
- and
- (v) a fifth reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 12 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 4011 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a fifth forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 11 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 3790 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a fifth amplification product, if present;
- and
- (vi) a sixth reverse primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 14 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5761 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 and a sixth forward primer that comprises at least 10 nucleotides that are identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 13 and binds specifically to a region of KIR2DL1 alleles comprising nucleotide 5616 of SEQ ID NO:
- 66 that are configured to generate a sixth amplification product, if present;
- and
- (b) determining one or more allelic groups of KIR2DL1 alleles present in the subject based on detection of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth amplification products from the PCR reactions, wherein the one or more allelic groups of KIR2DL1 alleles are selected from among group 1 (*003), group 2 (*006), group 3 (*012), group 4 (*004), group 5 (*010) and group 6 (*002).
