Abstract excerpt
Advances in DNA sequencing technologies have enabled genotyping of complex genetic regions exhibiting copy number variation and high allelic diversity, yet it is impossible to derive exact genotypes in all cases, often resulting in ambiguous genotype calls, that is, partially missing data. An example of such a gene region is the killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes. These genes are of special...
