**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Immunologic Factor

**Definition:** HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, A-32 alpha chain (365 aa, ~41 kDa) is encoded by the human HLA-A gene. This protein plays a role in antigen presentation and may contribute to both maturation of natural (NK) cells and self-nonself discrimination during innate immune response.
