Two examples of a new low-frequency red cell antigen, JFV.
A new low frequency red cell antigen JFV has been found in two families, one of German and one of Dutch origin. JFV is inherited as an autosomal dominant character. Family studies showed that JFV is not controlled by the Rh, MNS, Lu, Fy, or Jk loci and that it is not X- or Y-borne.
