Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The Rh system is genetically controlled by the homologous RHD and RHCE genes that encode the RhD and RhCcEe polypeptides, respectively. Deletions, point mutations and rearrangements between both genes are responsible for the great polymorphism of this system. The aim of this work was to analyse the genetic basis of a Dc- phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS: DNA samples from the Dc-...
