Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: RHD*03N.01 (RHD*DIIIa-CEVS(4-7)-D) and RHD*01N.06(RHD*D-CEVS(4-7)-D) are hybrid alleles that encode a partial C antigen, resulting in increased risk of C alloimmunization in individuals without a conventional C antigen. As detection of the hybrid alleles remains challenging, new markers can aid accurate identification, ensuring provision of C-negative blood to individuals at risk....
