The WHO Nomenclature Committee for factors of the HLA system met in Strasbourg in March 1994 at the European Foundation for Immunogen- etics Conference to consider additions and re- visions to the nomenclature of specificities defined by both molecular and serological techniques fol- lowing the principles established in previous re- ports (1, 3, 3, 4, 5 , 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11).

The main subjects discussed were:

1. Naming of new HLA genes 2. Naming of new alleles 3. Naming of alleles of other genes in the HLA

4. Promoter region variants 5. Naming of null alleles 6. Naming of specificities identified by low resol-

ution DNA typing 7. The HLA sequence databank 8. The HLA sequenced cell bank 9. Publication of new sequences

region

1. Naming of new HLA genes

Two new HLA genes, HLA-K and HLA-L, were named as shown in Table 1, both of which are novel Class I pseudogenes located near HLA-A.

2. Naming of new alleles a. Conditions for acceptance of new allele sequences

As emphasized in previous reports there are re- quired conditions for acceptance of new sequences for official names.

1. Several clones should have been sequenced. 2. Sequencing should have been performed in both

directions. 3. An accession number in a databank should have

been obtained. 4. Full length sequences are preferable though not

essential. 5. Where possible a paper should have been sub-

mitted for publication. 6. DNA or other material, in particular cell lines,

should be made available in a publicly accessible repository or at least in the originating labora- tory. Documentation on this will be maintained by the Nomenclature Committee.

It should be noted with some caution that cells from which only partial sequences have been ob- tained may later be shown to represent different or novel alleles when further sequencing is performed. This is of particular importance in cases where

aGene names given in bold type have been assigned since the 1991 Nomenclature report.

several different cells have been partially sequenced for an allele and all have been listed in this report.

Official designations are currently being assigned to new HLA alleles in the intervening period be- tween Nomenclature Committee meetings, provid- ing they meet the criteria outlined above. The listing of references to new sequences does not imply priority of publication. The use of numbers or names for alleles, genes or specificities which pre-empt formal designations such as “HLA-M”, “A*0103”, “DRBI *O 105”, or “HLA-DL” before consideration by the Nomenclature Committee is strongly discouraged.

b. New allele names

In the Class I region; nine HLA-A, 37 HLA-B, 16 HLA-C and four HLA-G alleles were named as

shown in Tables 2, 3, and 4. The designation B*39012 has been omitted from Table 3, as the sequence of the cell line originally thought to have this sequence was later found to be identical to the corrected B*39011. Since the previous report further sequencing information has revealed the sequence originally named as B*790 1, originally published as a B-locus blank, to be more closely related to members of the B70 family and this allele has now been renamed B* 15 18 in accordance with the naming of other B70 sequences (32, 29).

The sequence originally designated B*440 1 has now been found to contain errors and be identical to the corrected sequence for B*4402, (E. Pet- ersdorf personal communication) (48,49). Accord- ingly the name B*4401 has now been officially dropped.

In the Class I1 region; 47 DRBl alleles, three

a Allele names given in bold type have been assigned since the 1991 Nomenclature report. This reference is to a confirmatory sequence. This sequence has been previously assigned with a four digit allele name. Cell line is also known by alternative name. This reference is to a corrected sequence.

signed as DPB1*4201 and DPB1*4301 are not in- cluded in Table 7, as they have been retracted and shown to be identical to previously named sequences.

3. Naming of alleles of other genes in the HLA region

A total of five TAP1 and three TAP2 alleles were named (see Table 9) in accordance with previous committee policy.

4. Promoter sequences In the discussion on quences two possible

the naming of promoter se- approaches were discussed.

1. That the promoter sequence is an integral part of the allele as for instance any other exon or epitope of an allele sequence.

In this case every promoter sequence associ- ated with an allele will be identified by the letter P following the allele name with 01, 02 etc. i.e. DQA1*0101P01, DQAl"0101P02 etc. In this case PO1 and PO2 refer to the promoter sequence identified in the DQA1*0101 allele only.

Or

2. That promoter sequences should be named as separate entities.

Thus the names POI, PO2 etc. would be ap- plied to a given promoter sequence regardless of which allele i t is associated with.

a Allele names given in bold type have been assigned since the 1991 Nomenclature report. has been previously assigned with a four digit allele name. This reference is to a corrected sequence.

This reference is to a confirmatory sequence. This sequence

While it initially seemed possible to follow the sec- ond strategy of giving a promoter sequence a name regardless of which allele it was associated with, problems of the length of the region to be se- quenced and possible variations in unsequenced parts led to the decision to postpone the naming of promoter sequences until the results of dis- cussions in the HUGO Nomenclature committee on related topics are known, later this year. Mean- while a temporary nomenclature based on that used in the 1 1 th workshop ( 1 79) i.e. QAP* 1.1 will be used.

5. Naming of DRB4 null allele in OR7 Dwll haplotypes

It was agreed that the letter 'N' for null would be entered in the final field of non-expressed alleles.

N is defined as indicating a sequence defect in an HLA allele or gene which prevents normal ex- pression of the product at the cell surface (it does not necessarily imply that no internal partial prod- uct is made which might be a T-cell target).

Thus the DRB4 null allele on the DR7 Dwll haplotype carrying a mutation near a splice site will be named as DRB4*01012N to distinguish it

Committee. There will be no charge for this service to the submitting laboratory.

from the normally expressed DRB4*O 101 which will now be known as DRB4*01011 (see Table 5) . DRB4*01012N should only be assigned when the specific mutation site has been tested.

6. Naming of specificities identified by low-resolution DNA typing

Much DNA typing is, initially at least, carried out only at low resolution with the result that it is not possible to identify which of many alleles of a specificity such as DR4 are present. With many specificities it is possible to abbreviate, for example DRBl*O3, DRB1*04 etc., by truncating the more specific allele name. In the case of variants of DR2 and DR6, however, this has not been possible since DRB 1*02 and DRB 1 *06 were not used in the nam- ing of the DR2 and DR6 related alleles.

As a matter of convenience it has therefore been agreed that this nomenclature, DRB1*02 and DRB1*06, should be allowed for the results of low-resolution typing. It was further agreed that a subcommittee of the Nomenclature committee, possibly with other co-opted members, will work out more extensive guidelines for the naming of the results of low-resolution DNA typing.

7. The HLA sequence databank

Since the advent of DNA typing, HLA nomencla- ture depends heavily on the maintenance of a se- quence bank in which newly submitted sequences can be checked against existing sequences and all sequences can be made available to workers in the field. The HLA sequence databank is currently maintained at the I.C.R.F. in London by S. Marsh, with P. Parham, Stanford collecting and checking the Class I sequences provided to the London bank.

8. The HLA sequenced cell bank

A bank of all available sequenced cell lines is being set up at the European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures (ECACC), Porton Down, UK as part of the studies for the Twelfth International Histocom- patibility Workshop. These will be available to all those interested. Laboratories identifying new HLA alleles by sequence are urged to send either lymphoblastoid cell lines or, preferably, viable cells for transformation to the ECACC, once they have registered their sequence with the Nomenclature

9. Publication of new sequences

In response to the need to make information avail- able on a rapid basis it has been decided to publish a listing of references to newly assigned sequences in Tissue Antigens on a monthly basis.
