Next Generation Sequencing of HLA poses challenges for the application of HLA nomenclature. In order to maintain the utility of the IMGT/HLA Database, full-gene sequences are required for the assignment of allele names to non-exon sequences. Not all NGS HLA typing methods generate full-gene sequences. Given this limitation we have developed the "feature service". The feature service accepts the submission of pre-curated sequences for individual features of HLA and KIR genes.
For more information regarding this service refer to the paper in the link below.
