Abstract excerpt
We developed a cost-efficient workflow for genotyping HLA-E by NGS and applied it for genotyping more than 2.5 million potential stem cell donors. The data obtained were used to determine HLA-E allele frequency distributions for 104 populations. Our results confirm the known dominance of the alleles E*01:01 and E*01:03, which have a combined frequency of more than 0.99 in 97 of the 104 populations. E*01:01 is...
