Identification of a base substitution in intron 2 of the HLA-A2 gene and alternative splicing of HLA-A2 pre-mRNA in 624MEL28 cells. Exon 2 and intron 2 segments of the HLA-A2 gene were amplified by PCR from genomic DNA of 624MEL28 cells using the HLA-A2–specific primer pair 5pE1A2 and 3pE3. HLA-A2 DNA amplified from 624MEL38 cells was used as a control. DNA was sequenced using a Sequenase 2.0 kit. The exon 2–intron 2 boundary and the first two nucleotides of intron 2 are indicated in the DNA sequencing gel (top). The splicing of HLA-A2 pre-mRNA in 624MEL28 cells is compared diagrammatically with that of wild-type HLA-A2 pre-mRNA (bottom).
