“…This may be caused by a D(C") (e) complex. However, some observations clearly distinguished the findings in this family from the weak c and E antigens observed in two families previously studied in our laboratory [2,3], The observations may point to mechanisms other than just a 'depressed' or variant gene complex.…”

“…In the first family the corresponding gene complex was demonstrated in five members, over two generations [2], In the second, examined shortly after wards, the gene complex D(c) (E) was found in four members, over three generations [3]. In both families, the c and E antigens seemed to be reduced to about the same extent in all the members with the responsible gene complex.…”

The discovery of a family with three members showing weak C^w antigen is described. In the proposita and her mother the ‘depression’ of C^w was very marked, while a half brother on the maternal side showed a strength of the antigen intermediate between that of the two and a normal C^w. In addition, a reduced strength of the e antigen was found in all three members, also in the two who had a presumably normal e gene on the other chromosome.
