Abstract
A close association was found between a specific sequence of HLA-C and psoriasis vulgaris in Finnish patients (chi 2 = 18.4, P = 1.78 x 10(-5)). This sequence codes for alanine at position 73 of the HLA-C molecule in the antigen binding cleft, and alanine may play a role in susceptibility to the disease.Entities:
