HLA-DR, D recombination in a kidney transplant recipient.

Immunogenetic studies of a consanguineous family revealed discordance in the inheritance pattern of the HLA-D and HLA-DR antigens in one offspring. The findings suggest a recombination between the HLA-D and HLA-DR loci in one of the paternal chromosomes. Results on segregation of B-cell alloantigens. MLC reactivity, and glyoxalase isoenzyme determination map the DR gene between the HLA-B and D loci.
