Summary Four novel human leucocyte antigen ( HLA ) class II alleles were identified by sequencing‐based typing ( SBT ) and analysis of the closest‐matching alleles from volunteer subjects from the B razilian B one M arrow D onor R egister ( REDOME , B razil). The new HLA alleles discovered include DRB 1*04:11:03, DRB 1*10:05, DRB 1*15:94 and DRB 1*16:22. Three of the novel alleles had single‐nucleotide substitution polymorphisms when compared to their most homologous allele. Of these, one harboured a single‐nucleotide polymorphism ( SNP ) identified as a silent substitution.
