HLA Multiplexed GenDx Amplicons HLA A , B, C, DQB1, and DRB1

Instrument:  PacBio RSII
Chemistry:  C4
Enzyme: P6
RunTime: 180 min

Summary

This dataset includes four SMRT Cells of multiplexed HLA amplicons using GenDx primers for HLA typing, sequenced with P6-C4 chemistry on the PacBio RSII System. Each SMRT Cell contains a 8 different samples with barcodes applied using two different strategies.

• Class I HLA Amplicons: A, B, C
• Class II HLA Amplicons: DQB1, DRB1

More information on GenDx amplicons and the NGSgo reagent kit can be found via the link below. Consensus sequences can be generated with SMRT Analysis Long Amplicon Analysis Protocol version 2.3. Expected amplicon sizes range from 3.1Kb to 4.8Kb. One HLA-A allele drop-out is noted in barcode lbc2--lbc2 from the primer-tailed barcode dataset.
