Alternatively, if the weak association of VKH disease with HLA-DRB1*0101 and HLA-DRB1*0403/HLA-DRB1*0407 is considered as relevant, the susceptibility epitope shared by the five alleles would be LLEQRRA (67–73) in the third hypervariable region of DRβ1 molecules (Table 3, Figure 1). This evidence concerns the gene HLA-DRB1 and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease.
