Contributions

The study was designed by J.A.T., S.G., S.B., P.D. and J.D.R. Genotyping was performed by multiple groups (P.W., M.D., J.M., A.R., L.G., J.H., M.P.-V., S.S.M.). M.C. performed the HLA typing. A.J.M., C.W. and T.V. provided samples and genotype data for the cross-validation experiments. P.I.W.d.B., G.M., P.C.S., M.M., J.M., X.K., E.C.W. and T.G. performed analyses. The manuscript was written by P.I.W.d.B., G.M., P.C.S. and J.D.R., with contributions from J.A.T., D.A.H., M.J.D., M.C. and J.T. The genotyping, analysis and manuscript writing efforts of this international collaborative group were coordinated by J.D.R.
