Complement-human histocompatibility antigen haplotypes in C2 deficiency.
نویسندگان
چکیده
C4 allotyping 13 homozygous C2-deficient individuals demonstrated 23 of 25 haplotypes to be of the relatively rare type C4A4 B2. This is of the same magnitude as the association of C2Q0 with HLA-DW2/DR2.

HLA-Cw alleles associated with HLA extended haplotypes and C2 deficiency.
There are four MHC-linked complement genes, BF, C2, C4A and C4B, that are inherited as single DNA units, known as complotypes. Extended haplotypes were initially defined by studying the distribution of complotypes in relation to HLA-B and HLA-DR loci in Caucasian families. In order to analyze the distribution of HLA-Cw alleles in relation to extended haplotypes, we studied a large panel of MHC ...
متن کاملCharacterization of type I complement C2 deficiency MHC haplotypes. Strong conservation of the complotype/HLA-B-region and absence of disease association due to linked class II genes.
Fourteen individuals with complete C2 deficiency from 11 families and 3 heterozygous C2-deficient individuals from two families were investigated. In all the 24 independent C2-deficient haplotypes, the complotype S042 was present and the majority (21/24) was [HLA-B18,S042,DR2]. All carried the type I C2 deficiency C2 pseudogene with its characteristic 28 bp deletion. All but two haplotypes had ...
متن کاملEvidence for Linkage between Hl-a Histocompatibility Genes and Those Involved in the Synthesis of the Second Component of Complement
HL-A analysis of a family with C2 deficiency revealed evidence for close linkage between the C2 defect and the histocompatibility HL-A loci. The propositus was homozygous both for C2 deficiency and the HL-A haplotype 10,W18. Among seven children of three double backcross matings, no recombinants were found. The possible significance of such linkage is discussed.
متن کاملType I human complement C2 deficiency. A 28-base pair gene deletion causes skipping of exon 6 during RNA splicing.
Two variants of a genetic deficiency of complement protein C2 (C2D) have been previously identified. No C2 protein translation is detected in type I deficiency, while type II deficiency is characterized by a selective block in C2 secretion. Type I C2 deficiency was described in a family in which the C2 null allele (C2Q0) is associated with the major histocompatibility haplotype/complotype HLA-A...
متن کاملMixed lymphocyte culture determinants and C2 deficiency: LD-7a associated with C2 deficiency in four families
Four families with C2 deficiency were studied. Among eight HL-A haplotypes involved with C2 deficiency, five were HL-A 10,W18. Three homozygotes for C2 deficiency from different families were mutually nonreactive in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC) and the heterozygotes from the fourth family failed to react to the homozygous cells. It appeared that identical MLC determinants were associated ...
