The Duffy (FY) blood group antigens are carried by the DARC glycoprotein, a widely
expressed chemokine receptor. The molecular basis of the Fya/Fyb and Fy (ab-) …

We have previously identified a novel first exon of Duffy gene and two inverse GATA motifs
in the 600 bp 5′ flanking region. The proximal GATA is positioned downstream from the …

The GATA box single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position− 33 (T> C) in Blacks
silences the expression of FY* B in erythrocytes, and the substitution 265 C> T, together with …

BACKGROUND: The DARC (Duffy blood group, chemokine receptor) gene encodes for a
transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as a chemokine transporter, is a receptor for …

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 …

The Duffy blood group phenotypes of 554 random, unrelated, Caucasian families and 1,492
of their children are reported. The gene frequencies calculated from the parental phenotypes …

The expression of the Duffy Antigen/Receptor for Chemokines (DARC) on red blood cells
(RBC) has been commonly determined using hemagglutination tests. Because the vast …

The distribution of the Fy gene was studied in 1,207 Israeli Jews and 509 Arabs. The Fy (ab-
