Ambiguous Allele Combinations

Sequence Based Typing (SBT) as a method for defining the HLA type is well documented and most SBT typing strategies use the exon 2 and exon 3 sequences for HLA class I analysis and exon 2 for HLA class II analysis. Due to the heterozygous nature of SBT analysis, many pairs of alleles may give an ambiguous typing result. The documents here include a list of all alleles that are identical over exons 2+3 for HLA class I and all alleles that are identical over only exon 2 for HLA class II. This search tool provides an alternative method of viewing the ambiguous combinations currently detailed in the Microsoft XLSX file.
