In this report, we describe the identification of a novel allele HLA-A*0128, which was found in a registered donor from China Marrow Donor Program. The A*0128 allele differs from the A*0113 by one nucleotide substitutions in exon 2 at position 282 (G-->C). The mutation results in a codon change: at codon 70 where a glutamine acid is substituted by a histidine acid.
