HLA-DPB1 is the classical HLA class II genes with the least recorded variation on the IPD-IMGT/HLA Database, suggesting the full extent of its diversity is perhaps yet to be characterized. Here, a full-gene typing strategy was employed to genotype a UK cohort of 1470 HCT recipients (n = 744) and donors (n = 726). In total, 2940 full-length HLA-DPB1 sequences were generated, comprising 193 distinct alleles. Of...
