Dombrock blood group (DO): assignment to chromosome 12p.
The Dombrock blood group system (DO) is a common polymorphism in Caucasians, represented by two red cell antigen alleles. In a linkage study in our family material of 832 families from the Copenhagen area, we found a strong indication of tight linkage with the two flanking DNA polymorphisms D12S358 (z = 7.66; at theta M = 0.001, theta F = 0.031) and D12S364 (z = 8.53; at theta M = 0.068, theta F = 0.031). DO is assigned to the region 12p13.2-12p12.1 by physically localised markers.
