Oxford Nanopore RNA sequencing for HLA typing

A targeted RNA-based method for typing of 12 classical HLA genes using Oxford Nanopore sequencing. In the method, were enriched HLA genes from cDNA of 50 individuals using gene-specific reverse primers. The library molecules were then barcoded, pooled into 2 separate gene pools, and sequenced on MinION R9.4 SpotON flow cells.

Dataset ID	Description	Technology	Samples
EGAD00001006814	The dataset consists of Oxford Nanopore targeted RNA-based amplicon data of 12 classical HLA genes (HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRA, -DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1, and DPB1) of 50 healthy individuals. The 12 classical genes were sequenced in two separate gene pools on R9.4 flowcells using MinION sequencer. Per individual, gene pool 1 contains HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, and -DPB1 and gene pool 2 HLA-DRA, -DQA1, -DQB1, and -DPA1. The dataset includes 100 fastq files of Oxford Nanopore 2D reads (50 for gene pool 1 and 50 for gene pool 2).	MinION	100
