Note: According to the paper Horton, Roger, et al. "Gene map of the extended human MHC." Nature Reviews Genetics 5.12 (2004): 889-899. The extended MHC region is defined as being between the HIST1H2AA gene and the RPL12P1 pseudo-gene.

According to https://www.genecards.org/cgi-bin/carddisp.pl?gene=H2AC1,
HIST1H2AA starts at position 25726291 in genome build 37

According to https://www.genecards.org/cgi-bin/carddisp.pl?gene=RPL12P1

RPL12P1 ends at genome position 33368421 in genome build 37
