HLA-A29 (A29) is an HLA-A serotype. The serotype identifies the more common HLA-A*29 gene products. A29 is a split antigen of the A19 broad antigen serotype group. It is similar to the antigens A30, A31, A32, A33, and A74. A29 is more common in west Africa, Iberia and Western Europe. It is also more frequent in SW Europe than NE Europe.
