BackgroundVariation in the HLA loci, located on human chromosome 6p, has been associated with hundreds of diseases and conditions. However, high levels of polymorphism that characterize the HLA system, coupled with generally modest effect sizes for most phenotypes, necessitate relatively large sample sizes to power association studies; meanwhile, high resolution HLA genotyping remains relatively resource intensive. These constraints limit identification of novel associations. While phenome-wide ...
