Abstract excerpt
We investigated HLA class I (HLA-A, -B, and -C) and class II (HLA-DRB1, -DQB1, -DPA1, and -DPB1) alleles by NGS-based typing among 759 Brazilian individuals from three populations in the Rio de Janeiro city based on their self-declared skin color (Caucasian, N = 521, AFND-ID: 3730; Parda, N = 170, AFND-ID: 3728; Black, N = 68, AFND-ID: 3727) to calculate allelic and haplotypic frequencies, plus linkage...
