Recent Advances of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Typing Technology Based on High-Throughput Sequencing.

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans is a genetic region consisting of cell surface proteins located on the short arm of chromosome 6. This is also known as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region. The HLA region consists of genes that exhibit complex genetic polymorphisms, and are extensively involved in immune responses.
