Abstract
Iraqi Jews (123), now living in Israel, were studied for their HLA polymorphism. Gene frequencies exceeding .1 were found for A1, A3, Aw19, B5, B12 and Bw35. A28, B8 and B14 were relatively rare; Aw25 and Bw37 were not found at all. Significant gametic associations occurred for (Aw23, Bw21), (Aw26, Bw16), (A11, B5), (A28, B8) and (A28, B7). The Iraqi Jewish population was typical of Asiatics and Middle Easterners.Keywords
