PY - 2001 DA - 2001/07/16 TI - RHD positive haplotypes in D negative Europeans JO - BMC Genetics SP - 10 VL - 2 IS - 1 AB - Blood group genotyping is increasingly utilized for prenatal diagnosis and after recent transfusions, but still lacks the specificity of serology. In whites, the presence of antigen D is predicted, if two or more properly selected RHD-specific polymorphism are detected. This prediction must fail, if an antigen D negative RHD positive allele is encountered. Excluding RHDψ and CdeSfrequent only in individuals of African descent, most of these alleles are unknown and the population frequency of any such allele has not been determined.
