CD59 gene: 143 haplotypes of 22,718 nucleotides length by computational phasing in 113 individuals from different ethnicities.

We provided a large set of haplotypes and proposed three verified long-range CD59 reference sequences, based on a population approach, using a generalizable rationale for our choice. Correct long-range haplotypes are useful as template sequences for allele calling in high-throughput NGS and precision medicine approaches, thus enhancing the reliability of clinical diagnostics. Long-range haplotypes can also be used to evaluate the influence of genetic variation on the risk of transfusion reactions or diseases.
