Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the HLA-DRB1 gene polymorphism in the Lahu ethnic group of Yunnan, China, using a high-resolution PCR-SBT method, revealing 16 different alleles among 55 individuals.
- The most common alleles found were HLA-DRB1 *12021, *09012, and *15011, which together comprised 60% of the total alleles, with several alleles being unique to this study and rare globally.
- By comparing HLA-DRB1 frequencies across ethnic groups and constructing a phylogenetic tree, the research concludes that the Lahu ethnic group belongs to the southern Chinese population, rather than originating from northern ethnic groups, providing explanations
