Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The molecular basis of two Kell blood group antigens, RAZ (provisionally KEL27) and VLAN (KEL25), were determined. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The DNA sequences of the open reading frames and the flanking intron regions of the 19 KEL exons from RAZ and VLAN probands were compared with that of common KEL. Genotyping assays were designed to confirm and detect RAZ and VLAN phenotypes. RESULTS:...
