A New Rare Blood Group Antigen ‐ ‘Mit’: Probable Genetic Relationship with the MNSs Blood Group system1

Abstract
A new low incidence [human] blood group antigen Mit, immunization to which may cause neonatal hemolytic disease, is described. It is not part of the ABO, Duffy, Kidd, Rh or Yt blood group systems. Positive lods of +2.41 at .THETA. [assumed recombination fraction] = 0.00 indicate that the odds are 256 to 1 that Mit is either part of the MNSs system or governed by a locus closely linked to MN and Ss.
