2. Figure 1
Physical map of the MHC region and the location of Msat markers used in this study. Position of the Msats and HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1, -DPB1, MICA, MICB, and TNF are listed in map order from telomere to centromere on chromosome 6p21.3. Coordinates refer to National Center for Bioinformatics (NCBI) chromosome 6 build 36.2 ( The 3.1-Mb region between HLA-A to HLA-DPB1 is drawn to scale. The genetic distance is 3.6 Mb between D6S276 and D6S105 (single hatch), 2.1 Mb between D6S105 and HLA-A (double hatch), and 3.2 Mb between HLA-DPB1 and D6S291 (triple hatch). The kilobase (kb) pair distance between markers is provided in Table 2.

3. Figure 2
Rate of mismatching among HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 matched donor-recipient study pairs for MHC region Msats. HLA loci are included for the purpose of orientation with respect to the Msats studied. Of the 819 study pairs, 704 (86%) were each genotyped for all 12 Msats, 109 (13%) for all Msats except D6S2810, and 6 pairs (3%) for 10 or fewer Msats because of PCR failure. Of the 704 pairs, 11 (1.6%) were matched for all 12 Msat loci; the remaining 693 pairs were mismatched for 1 (1.2%), 2 (2.1%), 3 (2.1%), 4 (6.2%), or 5 or more (86.8%) Msats.
