HLA-B67




major histocompatibility complex (human), class I, B67
Alleles	B*6701
Structure (See HLA-B)
Symbol(s)	HLA-B
EBI-HLA	B*6701
Locus	chr.6 6p21.31

HLA-B67 (B67) is an HLA-B serotype. The serotype identifies the more common HLA-B*67 gene products.^[1] B67 is region specific recombinant haplotype formed by the gene conversion of B*39, an allele common along the Northwest Pacific Rim (Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Coastal Siberia), and B7, B22, or B27.^[2] (For terminology help see: HLA-serotype tutorial)
