HLA gene and haplotype frequencies in a Nagaybaks population from the Chelyabinsk Region (Russian South Urals)

A total of 112 Nagaybaks, a Turkic ethnoconfessional group living mainly in the Nagaybak district of the Chelyabinsk Region of Russian South Urals, were genotyped for HLA-A, -B, -DRB1, -DQA1 and -DQB1 loci using PCR-SSP (low-resolution) and HLA-A29 (high-resolution). All loci were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (all p values >0.1 thus showing no locus-level deviations. The genotype data are available in the Allele Frequencies Net Database under the population name ‘‘Russia, South Ural, Chelyabinsk Region, Nagaybaks” and the identifier AFND0003397.
