Abstract excerpt
The Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) system has a critical role in immunorecognition, transplantation, and disease association. Early typing techniques provided the foundation for genotyping methods that revealed HLA as one of the most complex, polymorphic regions of the human genome. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), the latest molecular technology introduced in clinical tissue typing laboratories, has demonstrated...
