RA-susceptible (red) and resistant (blue) alleles are shown in this table. Amino acid and nucleotide positions are bases on the sequence alignment tool of the IPD-IMGT/HLA database (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ipd/imgt/hla/align.html) using the DRB1*04 group sequences shown in Figure S4 in Supplementary Material. The Bold letter indicates a difference of the amino acid or nucleotide sequence between the RA susceptible and resistant alleles. Amino acid positions in the exon 2 were referred from (4751).
