Haplotype Frequencies

The high-resolution frequencies have been updated as of December 2007, and represent an erratum to the original published frequencies. Please download the new frequency tables and updated manuscript tables and figures.

Human Immunology Manuscript Frequencies - 2006
Note: These frequencies are deprecated, but match the sample counts from the published September 2007 Human Immunology journal article. Individuals carrying HLA alleles (A*0201g and A*2402g) were systematically excluded from a subset of our population (roughly half of the minority groups: AFA, API, HIS) due to a technical issue with allele ambiguities and our failure to characterize these two allele groups as high-resolution.
