Two novel CD1D alleles were identified in unrelated individuals from Morocco. They differ each from the common CD1D*01 allele by one nucleotide substitution in exon 2 resulting in one amino acid change in the G-ALPHA1-LIKE domain. According to the IMGT unique numbering for G domain, CD1D*03 has one nucleotide transition c136 > t in codon 46, with an arginine-to-cysteine amino acid change (R46 > C) in the D-STRAND, whereas CD1D*04 has one transition c98 > t in codon 33, with a threonine-to-methionine amino acid change (T33 > M) in the C-STRAND. This suggests that CD1D is more polymorphic than previously assumed.

Abstract
Two novel CD1D alleles were identified in unrelated individuals from Morocco. They differ each from the common CD1D*01 allele by one nucleotide substitution in exon 2 resulting in one amino acid change in the G-ALPHA1-LIKE domain. According to the IMGT unique numbering for G domain, CD1D*03 has one nucleotide transition c136 > t in codon 46, with an arginine-to-cysteine amino acid change (R46 > C) in the D-STRAND, whereas CD1D*04 has one transition c98 > t in codon 33, with a threonine-to-methionine amino acid change (T33 > M) in the C-STRAND. This suggests that CD1D is more polymorphic than previously assumed.File in questo prodotto:
