We have investigated the DNA polymorphism for the DQA1 promoter region (QAP) and HLAclass II DRB1, DQA1, and DQB1 genes in 178 central European patients with Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) using polymerase chain reaction and Dig-ddUTP labeled oligonucleotides.

The HLA-DQA1 gene exhibits haplotype-specific restriction fragment polymorphisms due to DNA rearrangements. We found that some of these polymorphisms extend into the 5' flanking region of the gene and are distinct from other HLA-DQA1 related DNA polymorphisms so far reported. Sequencing of genomic D
