Abstract excerpt
The present work reports the DNA sequence of the polymorphic region from the uncommon complement allele C4B93. It shows a new combination of Chido and Rodgers antigenicities and expresses reverse antigenicity because it carries Rodgers 1, 2, and 3. C4B93 could have arisen from an ancient, non-homologous recombination between C4A3 (or C4A6) and C4B1a or from a homologous recombination between C4B1a and C4B5. These...
