ABSTRACT
Objective A rare HLA phenotype carrying three HLA-A antigens, A2, A11.2 and A24, was identified in a potential bone marrow donor SZHD1. Methods To determine molecular basis of this phenotype the HLA-A gene fragments from this donor and his family members were cloned and sequenced. Results Sequencing analysis indicated that the donor carries an unusual HLA haplotype, A*1102, A*24020101; B*38; DRB1*15. Conclusions Other four family members were found to carry this haplotype, which as a Mendelian gene was segregated and stably transmitted through three generations. This is a first example of a family carrying triple HLA-A antigens to the best of our knowledge.
