Summary: | The human mannose-binding lectin (
MBL
) gene encodes a polymorphic protein that plays a crucial role in the innate immune response. Human
MBL
deficiency is associated with immunodeficiencies, and its variants have been linked to autoimmune and infectious diseases. Despite this significance, gene studies concerning
MBL
sequencing are uncommon in Malaysia. Therefore, we aimed to preliminary described the human
MBL
sequencing dataset based on the Kelantan population. Blood samples were collected from 30 unrelated individuals and underwent DNA extraction, genotyping, and sequencing. The sequencing data generated 886 bp, which were deposited in GenBank (ON619541-ON619546). Allelic variants were identified and translated into six
MBL
haplotypes: HYPA, HYPB, LYPB, LXPB, HXPA, and LXPA. An evolutionary tree was constructed using the haplotype sequences. These findings contribute to the expansion of
MBL
information within the country, providing a valuable baseline for future research exploring the association between the gene and targeted diseases. |
