Summary

Description
English: Illustration of the DQ locus on chromosome 6, upper panel showing the physical location between DR loci and DP loci on the same chromosome within the HLA region. HLA-DQ antigen is compoesed of two polypeptide subunit genes HLA-DQA1 and HLA DQB1. DQ alpha is encoded by HLA-DQA1 and DQ beta is encoded by DQB1. The bottom portion shows the haplotypes inherited by a persons mother (maternal) and father (paternal) A1 = DQA1 locus, B1 = HLA-DQB1 locus (also known as Celiac1). If a person is heterozygote at both loci, then mother and father differ in genes (alleles) at both A1 and B1. A1 and B1 express proteins alpha and beta - the DQ antigen.
