Accurate HLA genotyping using low-pass sequence data

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) locus is a cluster of genes on chromosome 6 of the human genome that play a crucial role in self/non-self recognition in the immune system. Understanding genetic variation at the HLA locus is essential in human genetics as these genes are frequently associated with GWAS…
