The Rh blood group antigens D, Cc and Ee are encoded by two related genes, RHD and RHCE. The RhG antigen (Rh12) is associated with the expression of RhC and/or RhD, except in rare variant red cells. Here we have determined the molecular basis of G expression in the absence of D and C in the rGr phenotype. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that the rG allele resulted either from a segmental DNA exchange...
