Allele Frequencies in World Populations

Introduction


"We want to thank all individuals who contributed to the Rare Alleles Project presented at the 15th IHWS in Brazil (September, 2008). This has now been published:

Middleton D, Gonzalez F, Fernandez-Vina M, Tiercy J-M, Marsh SGE, et al. (2009) A bioinformatics approach to ascertaining the rarity of HLA alleles. Tissue Antigens 74:480-485.

Our intention is to continue this project for the next International Workshop in Liverpool on 2012 and to work with Marcelo Fernandez-Vina and ASHI in taking this forward. Please contact us if you wish to participate."

As we have completely redesigned the website we are asking individuals to register at first time of use. Please register. If we know the interests of the individual/Institute using the website it will help in future developments.

Allele Frequencies in Worldwide Populations

The main purpose of the allelefrequencies.net website is to provide one central source, freely available to all, For the storage of allele frequencies from different polymorphic areas in the HUMAN genome. Users can contribute the results of their work into one common database, and can perform database searches on information already available.

We have currently collected data in allele, haplotype and genotype format. The success of this website will depend on you to contribute your data.

Please cite this website using: New Allele Frequency Database: http://www.allelefrequencies.net. Middleton D, Menchaca L, Rood H, Komerofsky R. Tissue Antigens 2003, 61, 403-407.
