title: An antigen resembling HL-A7 on the leukocytes of vervet monkeys.
abstract: Human leukocyte typing sera of known specificities were used to test the leukocyte antigens of vervet monkeys. The results suggest that these leukocytes contained an antigen resembling the HL-A7 antigen of human leukocytes. This is similar to a previous observation with leukocytes from baboons. These findings are consistent with the suggestion that the 4a/4b complex is the precursor substance from which the other specificities have evolved.
