HLA-B*82

HLA-B*82 (B82) is an HLA-B allele-group. There is no current useful serotyping for HLA-B82 gene products. B8201 was first identified by sequence analysis and appears to be derived by gene conversion between B5602 and another HLA class I allele., later B8202 was identified in a caucasian and was suggested to be ancestral to B8201, as product between gene conversion of B5602 allele and B4501 allele. B82 is more common in East Africa, Kenya and Sudan, the frequency of B8201 is found in the peoples to the west, sporadically in Central and West Africa, and B*8202 is found in Sudan and Saudi Arabia.
