HLA Typing
A Guide to HLA Typing with Nanopore Long Read Sequencing
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex plays a critical role in the immune system's ability to distinguish between self and non-self. Accurate HLA typing is essential for many applications, including organ and stem cell transplantation, disease…
HLA Typing and PyMol Modeling: Revolutionizing Drug Development through Immunogenetics
Introduction to HLA Typing for Drug Development
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system plays a crucial role in immune response and drug hypersensitivity reactions. HLA molecules present peptides to T cells to elicit immune responses, but…
How HLA Typing informs Drug Development
Understanding HLA Binding Specificity to Inform Drug Development
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules play a critical role in immune responses by presenting peptides to T cells. HLA genes are highly polymorphic, with thousands of HLA alleles…
HLA Typing and Gene Expression Profiling
Introduction
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing has become an invaluable tool for understanding immune responses and investigating protein pathways associated with HLA genes. High-resolution HLA typing provides precise characterization of…

Illumina Announces Long Reads
Illumina recently announced the upcoming availability of long-read technology at the 40th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, in a press release and on Illumina's Genomics Research Hub. The new long-read sequencing assay is code-named…
Cost Savings with Multiplex Samples
Multiplex sequencing, or multiplexing for short, is a method of combining two or more samples (pooling samples) in a single sequencing run. Multiplexing can increase the throughput of sequencing runs and save money at the same time.
Conceptually,…
Bacteriophage DNA Extraction Protocol
We routinely perform bacteriophage whole genome sequencing. However, we do not currently offer phage DNA extraction services. Instead, researchers perform phage DNA extraction at their own facilities and then ship purified gDNA to our sequencing…
