The murine C4d allotypes are antigenic variants of the fourth component of the mouse complement system which are controlled by alternative alleles at the S region of the H-2 complex. The first of these to be defined was H-2.7, originally described by Hoecker and co-workers (1959) who detected the sp

The antibody response against the H-2.2 specificity has been studied in three H-2 d strains, B10.D2, DBA/2, and BALB/c, and their hybrids (B10.D2 x DBA/2)F1 and (B10.D2 x BALB/c)F1. The genetic control of the response appears to be complex: The three pure strains are responders, whereas both hybrids
## Abstract The antibody response of mice to Ξ±β1,3 linked dextran is shown to be controlled by a heavy chain variable region gene, V~H~βDEX. The map distance between this gene and the heavy chain allotype locus is estimated to be 0.3 recombination units.
