LINKAGE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE LOCI OF THE MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX IN FAMILIES WITH A RECOMBINATION IN THE HLA REGION

Abstract
A number of families with an established recombination in the major histo-compatibility complex has been investigated for markers known to be coded by genes of this linkage group. The results provide further data on the relative position of the loci for HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-D, Bf, Chido, Rodgers and PGM3 on chromosome 6. A positive lodscore for linkage between HLA and blood group P was found; lodscores between HLA and nineteen other markers were negative.
