An alloantigen was detected in the cytoplasm of blood cells, predominantly in
hemolyzed erythrocytes, by radioimmunoassays developed with antibodies from a hemophiliac.
The frequency of the antigen varies in different races. Studies in Caucasian families
revealed an autosomal-dominant inheritance of the antigen.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
