Abstract
SpecificityH-2.7 is expressed predominantly on erythrocytes and controlled by a gene that maps within theH-2 gene complex at a locus, designated asH-2G, which apparently lies between regionsS andD. Three phenotypes have been observed with respect to this antigen: a) positive by direct test and absorption (haplotypesH-2 f,H-2 j,H-2 p,H-2 s); b) positive only by absorption (H-2 k); and c) negative (H-2 b,H-2 d,H-2 q). New crossover positions have been established for severalH-2 recombinants based on classifications for theH-2G locus.
