FIG. 1.

PCR typing of Mamu-A*02⁺ rhesus monkeys. DNA from PBL of five representative monkeys was amplified using allele-specific primers as described in Materials and Methods. Samples were run on a 1% agarose gel. MDRB represents the position of a 260-bp internal-control amplification product expected to be present in all samples tested. A*02 indicates the position of the 1.3-kb Mamu-A*02-specific amplification product. Based on the data shown, monkeys 14282, 18324, and T641 were tentatively identified as Mamu-A*02⁺, pending sequence confirmation.
