Estimating HLA disease associations using similarity trees

2018-09-04

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is associated with many (infectious) disease outcomes. These associations are perhaps best documented for HIV-1. For example, the HLA-B*58:01 allele is associated with control of the virus, while HLA-B*18:01 is considered detrimental.
