HLA-A43 (A43) is a human leukocyte antigen serotype within HLA-A serotype group.

The serotype is determined by the antibody recognition of α43 subset of HLA-A α-chains.

For A43, the alpha "A" chain are encoded by the HLA-A*43 allele group and the β-chain are encoded by B2M locus.

A43 is more common in Africa and SouthWest Asia.

A43 is believed to have been formed by a single gene conversion between another HLA-A and the A*2601 allele.[2].
