We analyzed the frequencies and haplotypes of DQA1*03 and *05 subtypes, DQA1*03011 or DQA1*0302 and DQA1*0501 or DQA1*0503, respectively, differing only at codon 160 in the non-polymorphic third exon of the DQA1 gene. Of these, 1,862 and 337 individuals selected as DQA1*03- and DQA1*05-positive samples, respectively among 2,215 unrelated Japanese were typed for their nucleotide variation at residue 160 using PCR-SSP. As observed in other populations, all the samples carrying DQA1*03011 (Gene Frequency, GF: 7.8%) were found to share DQB1*0302, whereas those carrying DQA1*0302 (GF: 44.3%) were associated with a variety of DQB1 alleles including DQB1*0302. Both of the DQA1-DQB1 haplotypes with DQA1*03011 and DQA1*0302 carrying DRB1*0406, DQA1*03011-DQB1*0302 and DQA1*0302-DQB1*0302, showed a strong linkage disequilibrium with B62 (p < 0.001, p < 0.05). These results suggested that DQA1*03011 was generated from a single amino acid change at residue 160 in the DQA1*0302-DQB1*0302 haplotype. However, none of the haplotypes with two different DQA1*03 subtypes carrying DRB1*0403,*0405,*0802 and *0901 showed a linkage disequilibrium with any common B-locus antigens, revealing extensive haplotypic diversity of the DQA1*03 group. For example, DRB1*0802 haplotypes showed linkage disequilibria with two different B-locus antigens, B35 and B61 depending on the presence of DQA1*03011 and DQA1*0302, respectively. The GFs of DQA1*0501 and *0503 were 5.1% and 2.7%, respectively. The DQA1*05 associated haplotypes in the DR52-antigen group with DQB1*0301 were divided into two groups, depending on the bimorphism at residue 160. Such a high degree of haplotypic diversity in association with DRB1 and B alleles observed in the DQA1*03 and *05 groups related to amino acid variation at residue 160, which may affect biological function such as the interaction between CD4 and HLA-DQ molecules, seems to reflect selective pressure in the evolutionary process of HLA antigens.
