IPD-IMGT/HLA - Human Leukocyte Antigen Sequence Database

Abbreviation:IPD-IMGT/HLA

General Information

The IPD-IMGT/HLA Database provides a specialist database for sequences of the human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and includes the official sequences named by the WHO Nomenclature Committee For Factors of the HLA System. The IMGT/HLA Database was established to provide a locus-specific database (LSDB) for the allelic sequences of the genes in the HLA system, also known as the human MHC. The IMGT/HLA Database was first released in 1998 and subsequently incorporated as a module of IPD in 2012.
