IgG2, G2m(23) anti-Rh-D antibodies were detected in the serum of a donor. It has been characterized by Gm typing and the use of polyclonal and mouse monoclonal anti-IgG subclasses (which had proved to be satisfactory for agglutination of sensitized red blood cells). This anti-D constitutes a good reagent for G2m(23) typing.

The authors report a family in which the father is Ax, the mother B, the paternal grandmother Ax; 3 children out of 6 are A2B and the other three Ax. One of A2B children is married to an O subject, and she had a son of phenotype Ax. It was observed that Ax gene in position trans of a B gene behaves phenotypically as an A2.
