I have a list of HLA alleles, but I need to get these IDs in rsID format, or at least the chromosome and position.
I've tried searching on SNP-DB and SNPedia, and old-fashioned internet search, but nothing is coming up.
PharmGKB doesn't show the necessary position or rsID.
How can I connect an HLA allele, for example HLA‐C*07:29 as an rsID or chromosome and position?

HLA are gene haplotypes as in defined by the thousands of nucleotides that constitute an HLA gene. I could see why they would not have rsids and positions like single nucleotide variants and short insertion deletions. Happy to be shown otherwise though I didnt research this at all

Take a look at this, which discusses HLA alleles and RSIDs, https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ipd/imgt/hla/help/genomics.html
