Compilation of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles associated with immune responses to Small pox vaccines
The HLA alleles were manually curated from available literature sources and were systematically compiled in a pre-formatted template.
For extensive understanding on the prvealence of these alleles in various global populations, global allele frequencies were retrived from Allele Frequency Net Database (http://www.allelefrequencies.net/default.asp) and documented. Summary of HLA alleles with significant associations with Smallpox vaccine immune responses - HLA-A - 1
- HLA-B - 11
- HLA-DQB1 - 2
- HLA-DRB1 - 4
