Abstract excerpt
The Rhesus (RH) blood group locus is composed of two related structural genes, D and CcEe, that encode red cell membrane proteins carrying the D, Cc and Ee antigens. As demonstrated previously, the RhD-positive/RhD-negative polymorphism is associated with the presence or the absence of the D gene. Sequence analysis of transcripts and genomic DNA from individuals that belong to different Rh phenotypes were...
