HLA-A{{{type}}} (A{{{type}}}) is a human leukocyte antigen serotype within HLA-A serotype group. The serotype is determined by the antibody recognition of α{{{type}}} subset of HLA-A α-chains. For A{{{type}}}, the alpha "A" chain are encoded by the HLA-A*{{{allelegroup}}} allele group and the β-chain are encoded by B2M locus.[1] A{{{type}}} and A*{{{allelegroup}}} are almost synonymous in meaning.
