This registry aims to serve as the main database of theoretical and confirmed HLA eplets
recognizable by
B-Cell receptors.
There are separate sections for the most commonly typed HLA loci: HLA -ABC, -DRB, -DQ, -DP and -MICA
and
Interlocus. Each section displays the following information about these HLA eplets:
- 01 ID - numerical unique identifier of the eplet.
- 02 Name - name of the eplet, unique within a specific HLA
locus.
- 03 Description - the amino acid that describes the eplet.
- 04 Evidence - Levels of evidence of the eplet according to Bezstarosti, S., ... & Heidt, S. (2022).
- 05 Exposition - Levels of exposition of the eplet
according to
Rene
Duquesnoy et al.
- 06 Status - link to antibody reactivity reports of
confirmed eplets.
- 07 Str. Epitope - link to information about the eplet's
structural epitope.
- 08 Frequency - link to the Allele Frequency Net Database website for eplet
frequencies.
- 09 3D View (Luminex® Alleles) - link to the pHLA3D tool for visualizing eplet exposition.
- 10 All Alleles - list of all (Luminex® or not) HLA alleles
that
share the eplet.
Each HLA eplet has its own row, and eplets are sorted according to their amino acid sequence
positions. Each section has search options to identify repertoires of confirmed HLA eplets on
selected alleles and eplets that are mismatched for a given HLA typing. For more detailed
