Abstract

Oligonucleotide probes were used to investigate the role of DQβ molecules in susceptibility to multiple sclerosis. Although shared amino acid and nucleotide sequences in DQβ1 have been suggested to be critical in disease development, we find that the distribution of sequences corresponding to residues 71-77 is not greater in patients versus controls.
