Heterogeneity and linkage of equine C4 and steroid 21-hydroxylase genes. The fourth component of complement (C4) is polymorphic in most species studied, and is encoded by a gene or genes within the MHC. In man and mouse there are two closely linked C4 and steroid 21-hydroxylase (21-OH) genes. Therefore we have used Southern blotting to determine whether equine C4 and 21-OH genes are linked. C4 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was found with the enzymes EcoRI and BamHI. Comparison of the sizes of EcoRI-digested fragments of genomic DNA hybridizing with C4 and 21-OH probes revealed that equine C4 and 21-OH genes are separated by no more than 13 kb. Fur...
The ELY-1 locus controls a di-allelic alloantigenic system on equine lymphocytes. The ELY-1 locus controls the expression of a polymorphic cell surface antigen of equine lymphocytes which was detected using antibodies generated by alloimmunization with peripheral blood lymphocytes. The ELY-1 antigens were not detected on erythrocytes or platelets by absorption experiments. The two alleles, which have been designated ELY-1.1 and ELY-1.2, are expressed codominantly and appear to constitute a closed system at the population level. In family studies, the ELY-1 antigens segregated as products of an autosomal locus not linked to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of the h...
Equine leucocyte antigen system. IV. Recombination within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). A case of recombination between the putative class I ELA antigen series and the structure(s) governing mixed lymphocyte reactivity in an informative horse family is described. The results of serological typing, 'lysostripping' and mixed lymphocyte culture tests strongly suggest that the recombination took place between two loci and is not intragenic. An alloantigenic membrane structure, provisionally called B1, which does not belong to the known ELA series, was also involved in the cross-over. The B1 antigen resembles the class II gene products of other species in two respects: it is not prese...
Equine leucocyte antigen system. III. Non-MHC linked alloantigenic system in horses. A new, non-MHC linked alloantigenic membrane antigen on the equine lymphocytes is described. This antigen was characterized with alloantisera in the two-stage microcytotoxicity test and designated as ELy-1 antigen. The frequency of ELy-1 antigen positive animals in various populations is close to 50%. ELy-1 shows an autosomal, dominant inheritance. Since an allelic antigen (s) could not be demonstrated in family studies, it is assumed that only two alleles ELy-1+ and ELy-1- exist. The ELy-1 antigen in positive animals is expressed on both T and B lymphocytes but it is not present on erythrocyt...
