Abstract excerpt
The distribution of HLA phenotypes, genes and haplotypes in the normal population is of considerable importance in, for example, disease susceptibility studies, platelet transfusion support and transplantation. HLA population genetics studies have been carried out on numerous population samples, however, no major studies have been performed on Irish Caucasoids. We have analysed the HLA-A, B and DR phenotypes of...
