From: Balancing selection is common in the extended MHC region but most alleles with opposite risk profile for autoimmune diseases are neutrally evolving

Figure 1

Schematic representation of a portion of the xMHC region. The location of all genes mentioned in the text is shown. Opposite risk SNPs are indicated with their ID if they are intergenic, otherwise the gene is indicated. The genes/gene regions we analysed are reported in red. Genomic coordinates for the region shown are chr6: 28497563-33238447 (NCBI Build 36.1).
