title: Anti-Au: the antithetical antibody to anti-Au.
abstract: Anti-Au, the first example of the antithetical antibody to anti-Au, was identified in the serum of a blood donor who had been transfused 16 years previously. Au has a gene frequency of 0.4326 in an American black population and 0.2994 in a southern English donor population. The expression of Au is suppressed by In(Lu). XS2 also suppresses Auberger antigen expression.
