Identification of a novel exon and spliced form of Duffy mRNA that is the predominant transcript in both erythroid and postcapillary venule endothelium

S Iwamoto, J Li, T Omi, S Ikemoto, E Kajii - 1996 - ashpublications.org
The Duffy gene has been shown not to be split by introns, even in its 5′ untranslated
region, and to be expressed not only in erythroid but in postcapillary venule endothelium of …

Deletion of the Murine Duffy Gene (Dfy) Reveals that the Duffy Receptor Is Functionally Redundant

H Luo, A Chaudhuri, V Zbrzezna, Y He… - Molecular and cellular …, 2000 - Taylor & Francis
All of the antigenic determinants of the Duffy blood group system are in a glycoprotein (gp-
Fy), which is encoded by a single-copy gene (FY) located on chromosome 1. gp-Fy is also …

A major advance towards understanding the Duffy blood group system has been achieved
with the cloning of FY, a single-copy gene located in the 1q22→ q23 region of chromosome …

The Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC) is expressed in endothelial cells of Duffy negative individuals who lack the erythrocyte receptor.

SC Peiper, ZX Wang, K Neote, AW Martin… - The Journal of …, 1995 - rupress.org
The Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC), first identified on erythrocytes, functions
not only as a promiscuous chemokine receptor but also as a receptor for the malarial …

The human Duffy antigen binds selected inflammatory but not homeostatic chemokines

L Gardner, AM Patterson, BA Ashton, MA Stone… - Biochemical and …, 2004 - Elsevier
The aim of the study was to compare the ability of the human Duffy antigen to bind
