Allele and eight-locus haplotype frequencies in population of Belgorod region,Russia

This paper reports the HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1 and –DPB1 alleles and estimated haplotype frequencies in a population of 153 healthy potential blood marrow donors from Belgorod region, Russia. HLA genotyping was performed by next generation sequencing method (NGS). Statistical analysis were performed using Arlequin software packages. There was no deviation from Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium detected at HLA-A, -B, -DRB1, -DQA1, -DQB1, and -DPA1 loci. Deviation was detected at the HLA-C and DPB1 locus probably due to an excess of C*12:03:01 and DPB1*04:01:01 homozygotes. These genotype data are available in the Allele Frequencies Net Database under the population name, “Russia, Belgorod Region” and the identifier: 3780.
