  • Chapter
Book cover Human Blood Groups

Abstract

The Diego blood group system comprises to date 21 antigen specificities—the antithetical Diego antigens, Di a (= DI1) [43] and Di b (= DI2) [72], the antithetical Wright antigens, Wra (= DI3) [24] and Wrb (= DI4) [1], as well as 17 low-incidence antigens (see Table 20.1).
