Identification of a novel fusion, SQSTM1-ALK, in ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma.

abstract：:The diversity of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I and II alleles can be simplified by consolidating them into fewer supertypes based on functional or predicted structural similarities in epitope-binding grooves of HLA molecules. We studied the impact of matched and mismatched HLA-A (265 versus 429), -B (230 v...
