  • Distribution of the 320 codon changes.

  • a Nonconservative variations were defined as amino acid changes that gave a negative score in a BLOSUM 62 matrix. Classical MHC genes include HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-DRB1, HLA-DRA1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DQA1, HLA-DPB1, HLA-DPA1; other genes include all other coding genes.
