Overview

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system, located in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6p21.3, is highly polymorphic. This region has been shown to be important in human disease, adverse drug reactions and organ transplantation (Shiina et al. 2009). HLA genes play a role in the immune system and autoimmunity as they are central to the presentation of antigens for recognition by T cells. Since they have to provide defense against a great diversity of environmental microbes, HLA genes must be able to present a wide range of peptides. Evolutionary pressure at these loci have given rise to a great deal of functional diversity. For example, the HLA–B locus has 1,898 four-digit alleles listed in the April 2012 release of the IMGT-HLA Database (Robinson et al. 2013) (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ipd/imgt/hla/).

Classical HLA genotyping methodologies have been predominantly developed for tissue typing purposes, with sequence based typing (SBT) approaches currently considered the gold standard. While there is widespread availability of vendors offering HLA genotyping services, the complexities involved in performing this to the standard required for diagnostic purposes make using a SBT approach time-consuming and cost-prohibitive for most research studies wishing to look in detail at the involvement of classical HLA genes in disease.

Here we introduce a new prediction method for HLA Imputation using attribute BAGging, HIBAG, that is highly accurate, computationally tractable, and can be used with published parameter estimates, eliminating the need to access large training samples (Zheng et al. 2014). It relies on a training set with known HLA and SNP genotypes, and combines the concepts of attribute bagging with haplotype inference from unphased SNPs and HLA types. Attribute bagging is a technique for improving the accuracy and stability of classifier ensembles using bootstrap aggregating and random variable selection (Breiman 1996, 2001; Bryll, Gutierrez-Osuna, and Quek 2003). In this case, individual classifiers are created which utilize a subset of SNPs to predict HLA types and haplotype frequencies estimated from a training data set of SNPs and HLA types. Each of the classifiers employs a variable selection algorithm with a random component to select a subset of the SNPs. HLA type predictions are determined by maximizing the average posterior probabilities from all classifiers.

Evaluation in Figures

The distance matrix is calculated based on the haplotype similarity carrying HLA alleles:

# hierarchical cluster analysis
d <- hlaDistance(model)
p <- hclust(as.dist(d))
plot(p, xlab="HLA alleles")

# violin plot
hlaReportPlot(pred, model=model, fig="matching")

Matching proportion is a measure or proportion describing how the SNP profile matches the SNP haplotypes observed in the training set, i.e., the likelihood of SNP profile in a random-mating population consisting of training haplotypes. It is not directly related to confidence score, but a very low value of matching indicates that it is underrepresented in the training set.
