Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) expressing on natural killer (NK) cells are ligands of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules. The number of KIR genes is different among KIR haplotypes, therefore each individual has a different number of inhibitory and activating KIR genes. Here, we established high-throughput sequencing method to identify the haplotype structure of HLA and KIR genes. The method for KIR and HLA typing was based on sequence capture method with custom oligo probes and MiSeq. Sequence reads from seventeen KIR genes could be aligned. The alignment result of KIR genes has distinct depth indicating copy number variation (CNV). The single nucleotide variants were used to estimate KIR allele sequence. Combination of CNV and SNVs as KIR allele could be available to estimate KIR haplotype structure.
