The class II region of the human major histocompatibility complex (HLA) is made up of three major subregions designatedDR, DQ, andDP. With the aim of gaining an insight into the evolution and stability ofDRhaplotypes, a total of 63 cosmid clones were isolated from theDRsubregion (Gogo-DR) of a western lowland gorilla. All but one of these cosmid clones were found to fall into two clusters. The larger cluster, A, was defined by 41 overlapping cosmid clones and contained aDRBgene segment made up of exons 4 through 6 and fourDRBgenes, designatedGogo-DRB6, Gogo-DRB5*01, Gogo-DRB8, andGogo-DRB3*01. The total length of this cluster was ∼ 180 kb. The second cluster, B, encompassed a contiguous DNA stretch of ∼ 145 kb and was composed of 21 overlapping cosmid clones. Cluster B contained threeDRBgenes, designatedGogo-DRB1*08, Gogo-DRB2, andGogo-DRB3*02. One cosmid clone (WP1-9) containing aDRBpseudogene could not be linked to either cluster A or B. Neither the organization of cluster A nor that of cluster B was identical to that of knownHLA-DRhaplotypes. However, two gorillaDRBgenes,Gogo-DRB6andGogo-DRB5*01, the human counterparts of which are linked in theHLA-DR2haplotype, were found to be located next to each other in cluster A. The arrangement of theGogo-DRBgenes in cluster B, which is presumed to be the gorillaDR8haplotype, was similar to that ofHLA-DR3/DR5/DR6haplotypes and to that of the presumed ancestralHLA-DR8haplotype. These results demonstrate that certain combinations ofDRBgenes have been maintained since the time before the divergence of human and gorilla lineages more than 5 million years ago.
