Deficiency of the second complement component association with the HLA haplotype A10, B18 in a normal population.

چکیده
Serum C2 activity was measured in 135 individuals drawn from a panel of 418 tissue-typed blood donors. The study group included all donors with HLA antigens A10 and B18. Heterozygote C2 deficiency (C2Dhet) was defined by reference to the range of C2 activity in previously studied obligate heterozygotes. Five donors were C2Dhet. Family studies confirmed that C2Dhet was associated in all instance with an A10, B18 haplotype. The minimum frequency for C2Dhet was 1.2% in the panel of 418 donors and 62.5% in those donors with an A10, B18 haplotype.

HLA-Cw alleles associated with HLA extended haplotypes and C2 deficiency.
There are four MHC-linked complement genes, BF, C2, C4A and C4B, that are inherited as single DNA units, known as complotypes. Extended haplotypes were initially defined by studying the distribution of complotypes in relation to HLA-B and HLA-DR loci in Caucasian families. In order to analyze the distribution of HLA-Cw alleles in relation to extended haplotypes, we studied a large panel of MHC ...

Fourteen individuals with complete C2 deficiency from 11 families and 3 heterozygous C2-deficient individuals from two families were investigated. In all the 24 independent C2-deficient haplotypes, the complotype S042 was present and the majority (21/24) was [HLA-B18,S042,DR2]. All carried the type I C2 deficiency C2 pseudogene with its characteristic 28 bp deletion. All but two haplotypes had ...
متن کاملType I human complement C2 deficiency. A 28-base pair gene deletion causes skipping of exon 6 during RNA splicing.
Two variants of a genetic deficiency of complement protein C2 (C2D) have been previously identified. No C2 protein translation is detected in type I deficiency, while type II deficiency is characterized by a selective block in C2 secretion. Type I C2 deficiency was described in a family in which the C2 null allele (C2Q0) is associated with the major histocompatibility haplotype/complotype HLA-A...
