Development of a PCR test for the detection of patients at risk of allopurinol-induced ADR / Muhd Luqmanulhakim Abu Bakar
HLA-B is known as major histocompatibility complex, class I, B, is a human gene that provides instructions for making a protein that plays a critical role in the immune system. HLA-B is part of a family of genes called the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex. Their genetic polymorphisms give rise...
