From: Molecular characterisation of KIR2DS2*005, a fusion gene associated with a shortened KIR haplotype
KIR2DS2*005 is a hybrid gene containing the 5′-end of KIR2DS2 (exon 1–intron 6) and the 3′ end of KIR2DS3 (intron 6–exon 9). Its chimerical structure enables simpler detection of KIR2DS2*005 by PCR–SSP method with primers for intron 6. Two KIR2DS2*005-positive DNAs were tested along with five negative controls. Exons and introns are drawn approximately to scale. IPC, internal positive control of the PCR.
