title: A new duplication at the C4B locus associated with the HLA-Aw68, Cw8, Bw65 haplotype.
abstract: A family with a cross-over between HLA-B and HLA-DR was analysed for its complement alleles. This allowed location of the cross-over between HLA-B and C4. Furthermore, the same family showed a previously undescribed duplication at the C4B locus (C4B* 2,2) that was associated with the HLA-Aw68, Cw8, Bw65, C2*1, Bf*S, C4A*2, DR7, DQw2 haplotype.
