HLA-A25 (A25) is an HLA-A serotype. The serotype identifies the more common HLA-A*25 gene products. A25 is a split antigen of the A10 broad antigen serotype group. It is believed to have been formed by a single gene conversion between another HLA-A and the A*2601 allele.^[1] A26 is more common in Western Europe.

A*2501 distribution is primarily located in western Eurasia. Frequency tends to be highest in the populations that underwent later neolithization suggesting A*2501 spread in Europe. The high frequency in Saudi Arabia is suggestive of a source.
