On the Selection of Tag SNPs for Capturing Human Leukocyte Antigen
HLA Genes n n n HLA genes located on chromosome 6 The genes’ expression is codominance They have a great diversity They encode cell-surface antigenpresenting proteins They play an important role in immune system and transplantation
SNPs and Haplotype
Problem n n Before transplantation, the donor and the acceptor must compare their HLA type The traditional biological HLA typing is time-consuming and expensive The method we use is much faster and cheaper We want to find a small subset of the given SNPs called tag SNPs, which is able to capture the HLA genes
