Additional information

The names B * 2704 and B * 2706 were officially assigned by ythe WHO Nomenclature Committee in November 1987. This follows the agreed policy that, subject to the conditions stated in the most recent Nomenclature Report (Bodmer et al. 1995), names will be assigned to new sequences as they are identified. Lists of such new names will be published in the following WHO Nomenclature Report. The nucleotide sequences reported in this paper have been submitted to the GenBank nucleotide sequence database and have been a assigned the accession numbers U27608 and U35734
