High Resolution HLA ∼A, ∼B, ∼C, ∼DRB1, ∼DQA1, and ∼DQB1 Diversity in South African Populations

Background: Lack of HLA data in southern African populations hampers disease association studies and our understanding of genetic diversity in these populations. We aimed to determine HLA diversity in South African populations using high resolution HLA ∼A, ∼B, ∼C, ∼DRB1, ∼DQA1 and ∼DQB1 data, from 3...
