title: Anti-Rh41, a new Rh antibody found in association with an abnormal expression of chromosome 1 genetic markers.
abstract: A new antibody, anti-Rh41, is described. This antibody was found prepartum in a multiparous, Caucasian female with no prior history of transfusions. Anti-Rh41 reacts with red blood cells from individuals with cis oriented C and e genes, but is nonreactive with cells possessing the products derived from individuals with cis-oriented Cw and e genes, a characteristic which distinguishes this antibody from anti-rhi. Furthermore, in contrast to anti-rhi, anti-Rh41 consistently reacts with Negro rh's (VS-positive) bloods. Also noteworthy in this study is the presence of an abnormal expression of chromosome 1 genetic markers in an offspring of the propositus.
