Human major histocompatibility complex (HLA) cDNA probes were used to analyze the restriction hagment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the alpha genes of the DLA‐D region in dogs. Genomic DNA horn peripheral blood leucocytes of 23 unrelated DJA‐D homozygous dogs representing nine DLA‐D types (defined by mixed leucocyte reaction) was digested with restriction enzymes (BamHI, EcoRI, Hind III, Pvu II, Taq I, Rsa I, Msp I, Pst I and Bgl II), separated by agarose gel electrophoresis and transferred onto Biotrace membrane. The Southern blots were successively hybridized with radiolabelled HLA cDNA probes corresponding to DQ, DP, DZ and DR alpha genes. Clear evidence was obtained for the canine homologues of DO and DR alpha genes with simple bi‐ or tri‐allelic polymorphism, respectively. Evidence for a single, nonpolymorphic DP alpha gene was also obtained. However, the presence of a DZ alpha gene could not be clearly demonstrated in canine genomic DNA. This report extends our previous FWLP analysis documenting polymorphism of DLA class II beta genes in the same panel of homoygous typing cell dogs, and provides the basis for DLA‐D genotyping at a population level. This study also characterizes the RFLP‐defined preferential allelic associations across the DLA‐D region in nine different homozygous typing cell specificities.
