TL;DR: The findings refine the current understanding of continental migration, identify gene flow and the response to human disease as strong drivers of genome-level population variation, and underscore the scientific imperative for a broader characterization of the genomic diversity of African individuals to understand human ancestry and improve health.

Association of HLA-DR, -DQ, and vitamin D receptor alleles and haplotypes with tuberculosis in the venda of South Africa
TL;DR: Common African HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 variants, previously associated with protection from malaria and hepatitis B/C virus persistence, predispose the Venda to TB, whereas the proposedly active VDR haplotype F-b-A-T showed significant protection.
