Multiplexed Nanopore Sequencing of HLA-B Locus in Māori and Pacific Island Samples

Multiplexed Nanopore Sequencing of HLA-B Locus in Māori and Pacific Island Samples

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system encodes the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC). HLA-B is the most polymorphic gene in the MHC class I region and many HLA-B alleles have been associated with adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and disease susceptibility.
