Insights into the expression of ABH and Lewis antigens through human bone marrow transplantation.

Twelve information bone marrow transplants, with at least one difference in ABO and/or Lewis types between donor and recipient, were retrospectively studied. ABH and Lewis antigens were determined in plasma, erythrocytes, and lymphocytes. Donor lymphocytes acquired the ABH and Lewis antigens from the recipient's plasma in the same way that donor erythrocytes acquired the Lewis antigens from it. Lymphocytotoxicity detected type 1 ABH and Lewis antigens only, providing evidence for the existence of combined ABH and Lewis antigens on lymphocytes. This was in contrast with the ABH antigens on type 2 chains of red cells, which are devoid of Lewis specificities. The differences in genetic control, probable chemical structure, and cellular origin of these two types of ABH antigens are presented in a theoretical model that accounts for most of the known data.

Probable linkage between the human galactose-1-P uridyl transferase locus and 9qh.

Evaluation of a family in which electrophoretic variants of the eznyme galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) and 9qh variants occur demonstrates close linkage between these two traits: lod score of 3.67 at theta = 0. Taken with information indicating GALT is on the short arm of chromosome 9, these linkage data suggest that this locus is close to the centromere on the short arm of chromosome 9.

Expression of esterase D and other gene markers in trisomy 13.

A gene dosage effect was observed for esterase D in a patient with trisomy 13. Isoelectric focusing of hemoglobin from the same patient showed three unidentified bands. A gene dosage effect for several other enzymes was not observed in two other patients with trisomy 13.

Probable genetic linkage between autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and amylase (AMY2): evidence of an RP locus on chromosome 1.

A linkage analysis is reported for three branches of a single family segregating for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. A statistically significant lod score of 3.9 is obtained for the RP locus and AMY2 at a recombination frequency of 1%. This linkage indicates that the RP locus is on the no. 1 chromosome since the AMY2 locus has been placed on the short arm of 1. Lod scores are reported for four other loci on chromosome 1; none of these achieve statistical significance. Analyses are reported for 23 additional autosomal markers and close linkage with RP can be excluded for a number of these.
