Genetic polymorphism of properdin factor B (BF) in domestic rabbit.
Genetic polymorphism of plasma properdin factor B (BF) was detected in domestic rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus, by means of isoelectric focusing and immunoblotting. The analysis of 298 individuals, corresponding to one French and two Portuguese populations, revealed the existence of six alleles, of which BF*A, B and C were common alleles, and D, F and G were rare ones.
