Resumen:
RHD polymorphism shows substantial ethnic variability. In this study, we report the novel RHD exon 3 c.359C>A mutation responsible for the amino acid change p.Ala120Asp found in 28 individuals from Argentina with weak D antigen expression. The RHD*359A allele was only encountered in samples with ccEe phenotype suggesting a genetic cis association between this new RHD variant and the RHcE allele.
