HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 genotyping of 1000 Northern Irish individuals from Belfast, Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom.

One thousand individuals from Belfast, Northern Ireland were genotyped at the HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRB1 loci using sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe methods. HLA-A locus genotypes display a minor Hardy-Weinberg (HW) deviation (p=0.0375); HLA-B, -C and -DRB1 genotypes are consistent with expected HW proportions. These genotype data are available in the Allele Frequencies Net Database under identifier AFND 1243.
