ThePrincipleoftheMethod:NGS-basedHLAtypingfortheIlluminaMiSeqFormany years theHLA community has beenworking toward amethod thatwill accuratelyidentifytheextensivepolymorphismoftheHLAgenesandoftheirgeneproducts.TheadventofPCR,combinedwithothertechnologies(Sangersequencing,SSOP,SSP,Luminex),providedaformula for significantly improving the detection of HLA polymorphisms albeit with severallimitationsthatcontinuetoinhibitourabilitytocomprehensivelycharacterizetheHLAgenes.Technologies developed over the last several years, cumulatively called Next GenerationSequencing (NGS),haveprovidednewopportunities thatallowthecompletecharacterizationoftheHLAgenesinhaploidfashion.NGShastwodistinctfeatures,1)clonalsequencingofDNAfragments, and 2) tremendously high throughput.
