Immunogenetic Diversity of South Asian Cohorts from Pakistan and India

South Asian cohorts from Pakistan and India provide targeted KIR and HLA class I sequence reads from de-identified subjects. The data was deposited by author Katherine Kichula via Harvard Dataverse. The record was last updated on July 8, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze population-specific allele frequencies based on KIR gene sequences mentioned in the description
• Study HLA class I diversity and disease susceptibility based on sequence reads mentioned in the description
• Compare immunogenetic profiles between the Pakistani and Indian cohorts referenced in the title

Strengths

• Data focuses on two distinct South Asian populations, Pakistan and India, enabling comparative analysis.
• Sequence data covers two key immunogenetic systems, KIR and HLA class I, as stated in the description.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
