Abstract
A novel MICA allele, MICAâ078, has been identified during HLA/MICA high resolution typing of Moroccan patients with celiac disease. MICAâ078 shows an uncommon variation at a highly conserved nucleotide position (nt 493, G â A), resulting in one amino acid change at codon 142 (V â I) of MICA gene (compared to MICAâ002:01), located in the α2-domain, in which V142 is the common residue.
