A Nomenclature committee for Factors of the Dog Major Histocompatibility System or Dog Leukocyte Antigen (DLA) has been convened under the auspices of the International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG) to define a sequence based nomenclature for the genes of the DLA system. The remit of this committee includes: assignment of gene names rules for naming alleles assignment of names to published alleles assignment of names to new alleles rules for acceptance of new alleles DLA Nomenclature…

Nomenclature for factors of the dog major histocompatibility system (DLA), 2000: Second report of the ISAG DLA Nomenclature Committee.
The ISAG DLA Nomenclature Committee met during the "Comparative Evolution of the Mammalian MHC" meeting in Manchester, England on 10th September 2000. The main points discussed were the naming of…

ISAG/IUIS-VIC Comparative MHC Nomenclature Committee report, 2005
TLDR
The goals of the committee are to establish a common framework and guidelines for MHC nomenclature in any species in the form of a database that will ensure that in the future, researchers can easily access a source of validated MHC sequences for any species.
Molecular organization of the canine major histocompatibility complex.
TLDR
DNA sequencing has begun using a canine bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library to characterize other loci in the DLA region, and preliminary sequence analysis indicates that it contains the region where the class I and class III regions are joined.
Sequence analysis of MHC DRB alleles in domestic cats from the United Kingdom
TLDR
Analysis of FLA-DRB exon 2 polymorphisms in a cohort of 33 British cats by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and clonal sequence analysis reveals a similar pattern of MHC polymorphism to that seen in other mammals, with three regions of hypervariability.
Association of canine hypothyroidism with a common major histocompatibility complex DLA class II allele.
TLDR
A further series of 173 hypothyroid dogs in a range of breeds where a significant association with DLA-DQA1*00101 is shown are reported.
Polymorphisms of the equine major histocompatibility complex class II DRA locus.
TLDR
At least 11 ELA-DRA alleles are now known to exist, and this level of polymorphism at the DRA locus appears to be unique to the genus Equus.
Genomic sequence of the class II region of the canine MHC: comparison with the MHC of other mammalian species.
Frequency and distribution of alleles of canine MHC-II DLA-DQB1, DLA-DQA1 and DLA-DRB1 in 25 representative American Kennel Club breeds.
TLDR
Comparison of the study of North American purebred dogs to previous European DLA surveys showed a similar use of common alleles consistent with known founder effects, however, more alleles were detected in European breeds, compared to their North American descendents, indicating that additional DLA class II diversity was lost when European breeds were established in North America.
Allelic diversity of the MHC class II DRB genes in brown bears (Ursus arctos) and a comparison of DRB sequences within the family Ursidae.
TLDR
The phylogenetic analysis of the DRB alleles among three genera in the family Ursidae revealed thatDRB allelic lineages were not separated according to species, which strongly shows trans-species persistence of DRBalleles within the Ursidae.

Nomenclature for factors of the BoLA system, 1996: report of the ISAG BoLA Nomenclature Committee
TLDR
The rules for acceptance of new sequences are described and names are assigned to the sequenced alleles of the class II genes DRA, DRB1,DRB2, DRb3, DQA, DQB, DYA, DIB, DMA and DMB.
Allelic variation in the DQ subregion of the canine major histocompatibility complex: II. DQB
TLDR
In the DQ subregion of the dog major histocompatibility complex (MHC), the presence of a single functional DQA gene with at least four distinct alleles is demonstrated, termed DLA-DQA1 "0101, 0102, 0201, and 0202" (Sarmiento et al. 1992).
DLA-DRB1 and DLA-DQB1 histocompatibility typing by PCR-SSCP and sequencing.
TLDR
Polymerase chain reaction-single-stranded conformational polymorphism is used to separate alleles thereby allowing sequenced-based typing of the two most polymorphic class II genes described to date in the dog DLA-DRB1 and D LA-DQB1.
Nomenclature for factors of the HLA system, 1996.
Molecular analysis of DLA-DRBB1 polymorphism.
TLDR
The polymorphism of the canine major histocompatibility complex class II DRB gene, DRBB1, was analyzed and can serve as a basis for developing a typing assay for the canineDRBB1 gene.
Biochemical evidence that the DLA-B locus codes for a class II determinant expressed on all canine peripheral blood lymphocytes.
TLDR
The presence of these class II gene products on almost all lymphocytes in the dog is in sharp contrast to the numerous reports on their restricted expression in other mammalia such as man and mouse.
Allelic variation in the DR subregion of the canine major histocompatibility complex.
TLDR
Cluster analysis of the nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences subdivided the DLA-DRB alleles into three major allelic groups which may represent the canine counterparts of the supertypic groups described in man.
Molecular analysis and polymorphism of the DLA-DQA gene.
TLDR
This study will serve as a reference for developing a typing system for the DLA-DQA gene for donor and recipient matching in the canine model for organ and bone marrow transplantation.
Polymorphism analysis of four canine MHC class I genes.
TLDR
In this analysis, DLA-88 was found to be significantly more polymorphic than the other three genes, with 44 distinct alleles observed among 63 mixed breed, unrelated dogs.
Characterization of class II alpha genes and DLA-D region allelic associations in the dog.
TLDR
The previous RFLP analysis documenting polymorphism of DLA class II beta genes in the same panel of homozygous typing cell dogs is extended, and provides the basis for DLA-D genotyping at a population level.
