Abstract
An almost complete and bidirectional association exists between HLA-Cw 17 and the HLA-B antigens B41 and B42. Serological and molecular anal ysis of an individual in which HLA-B4101 was identified in the absenc e of Cw17 provides experimental evidence to prove a previously propos ed hypothesis predicting that alloantisera classified as ''B41-B42'' a re instead specific reagents for HLA-Cw17.
