HLA*IMP - an integrated framework for imputing classical HLA alleles from SNP genotypes
MOTIVATION Genetic variation at classical HLA alleles influences many phenotypes, including susceptibility to autoimmune disease, resistance to pathogens and the risk of adverse drug reactions. However, classical HLA typing methods are often prohibitively expensive for large-scale studies. We previously described a method for imputing classical alleles from linked SNP genotype data. Here, we pr...
متن کاملPredicting HLA alleles from high-resolution SNP data in three Southeast Asian populations.
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) containing the classical human leukocyte antigen (HLA) Class I and Class II genes is among the most polymorphic and diverse regions in the human genome. Despite the clinical importance of identifying the HLA types, very few databases jointly characterize densely genotyped single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and HLA alleles in the same samples. To da...
متن کاملAssociation of HLA-A and Non-Classical HLA Class I Alleles
The HLA-A locus is surrounded by HLA class Ib genes: HLA-E, HLA-H, HLA-G and HLA-F. HLA class Ib molecules are involved in immuno-modulation with a central role for HLA-G and HLA-E, an emerging role for HLA-F and a yet unknown function for HLA-H. Thus, the principal objective of this study was to describe the main allelic associations between HLA-A and HLA-H, -G, -F and -E. Therefore, HLA-A, -E...
متن کاملA novel method for simultaneous high resolution identification of HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-Cw alleles.
We describe a novel high resolution DNA based typing approach for HLA class I alleles, which identifies the recombinational motifs present in exons 2 and 3 of the HLA class I genes. Unique identification patterns for 201 known HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-Cw alleles were generated by the use of only 40 probes, which were targeted at these common motifs. The unambiguous identification of the alleles wa...
متن کاملA Method for Predicting Pile Capacity Using Cone Penetration Test Data
The massive construction in poor lands has encouraged engineers to use deep foundations in order to transfer superstructure loads to the subsoil. Since soil excavation, sampling, and laboratory testing as a part of site investigation are relatively difficult, in-situ tests such as cone penetration test (CPT) as a very informative test may be recommended. The CPT has been widely used in engineer...
