Abstract excerpt
The Rh (Rhesus) blood group antigens, D, Cc, and Ee, are carried by three unglycosylated membrane proteins of the human erythrocytes encoded by two highly related genes, D and CcEe. The major antigen, D, is a mosaic composed of at least nine determinants (epD1 through epD9). The lack of expression of some of these D epitopes at the surface of variant red blood cells defines the so-called D category phenotypes. In...
