- HLA-DR52
HLA-DR52 is an
HLA-DR serotype that recognizes gene products of HLA-DRB3 locus. There are 3 allele groups that can produce 35 isoforms.DRB3, DRB4, and DRB5 are minor DR beta encoding loci, they have been recognized as having distinct evolution.cite journal |author=Gorski J, Rollini P, Mach B |title=Structural comparison of the genes of two HLA-DR supertypic groups: the loci encoding DRw52 and DRw53 are not truly allelic |journal=Immunogenetics |volume=25 |issue=6 |pages=397–402 |year=1987 |pmid=3596674 |doi= |issn=] having diverged from DRB1 approximately 4 million years ago.cite journal | author = Gongora R, Figueroa F, Klein J | title = The HLA-DRB9 gene and the origin of HLA-DR haplotypes | journal = Hum.

DRB3 locus is only apparent in a small subset of DR haplotypes, and most individuals lack DRB3.
