Assessing HLA imputation accuracy in a West African population

2023-01-23

Abstract excerpt

The Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) region plays an important role in autoimmune and infectious diseases. HLA is a highly polymorphic region and thus difficult to impute. We therefore sought to evaluate HLA imputation accuracy, specifically in a West African population, since they are understudied and are known to harbor high genetic diversity. The study sets were selected from Gambian individuals within the Gambian...
