Sequence diversity of the Rh blood group system in Basques. [PDF]
Basques show specific cultural, demographic, and genetic characteristics that have placed them as an isolated and unique population within Europe, such as their non-Indo-European language, Euskara. They have historically lived along the Western Pyrenees, between Spain and France, in one of the most important European glacial refugia during the Last ...

Molecular basis of Rh blood group system in the Malaysian population [PDF]
Background: Rh molecular studies have been previously mainly conducted in Caucasians and African population. There is a limited data on the molecular basis for Rh genotypes among Asians. Aims: This study aims to characterize the Rh genes and frequency of

Evolutionary genetics of the human Rh blood group system. [PDF]
The evolutionary history of variation in the human Rh blood group system, determined by variants in the RHD and RHCE genes, has long been an unresolved puzzle in human genetics. Prior to medical treatments and interventions developed in the last century, the D-positive (RhD positive) children of D-negative (RhD negative) women were at risk for ...

Rh blood-group system and the importance of its research in the population of Vojvodina [PDF]
We examined the Rh blood group system in blood donors. Rh factor is tested on a sample of 300,000 donors, while the testing of Rh phenotype was performed on 4000 blood donors.

Prevalence of Rhesus & Kell phenotypes among blood donors of Bangladesh [PDF]
The Rhesus blood group system is one of the most polymorphic and highly immunogenic systems in humans. Because of its high and strong immunogenicity Rh D antigen testing is mandatory before issuing a compatible blood.

Genetic Model for the Rh Blood-Group System [PDF]
Inherited quantitative aspects of the Rh blood-group system and susceptibility of Rh to the effects of independently segregating suppressor genes can be accounted for with a conjugated operon model. This assumes the existence of four operator or promotor (control) genes for these functions, while closely linked structural regions determine the ...

Some observations on the blood factor RhAof the Rh-Hr blood group system [PDF]
SUMMARYThe complex serologic behavior of the Rh-Hr agglutinogens has been underlined by the recent discovery that, with very rare exceptions, associated with blood factorRh0of Rh-positive blood, there are numerous other blood factors which we designatedRhA, RhB, RhC.

DAK, a new low‐incidence antigen in the Rh blood group system [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Some low‐incidence antigens in the Rh blood group system (e.g., VS, Rh32, FPTT) are expressed by more than one Rh complex. We describe a new low‐incidence antigen that is present on RBCs with the partial D phenotypes, DIIIa or DOL, on N RBCs and on one example of STEM+S RBCs.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Standard hemagglutination testing was
