Out of the 55 antigens in the Rh blood group system, D is the most immunogenic and important in clinical practice because of being potentially involved in hemolytic transfusion reactions and hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn. Altered expression of the D antigen arises mostly from variant alleles such as I weak D i and I partial D i .1,2 Here we reported a new I RHD i allele associated in I cis i with I RHCE*Ce i found in donors from the central region of Argentina. While the already-reported five DFR variants result from hybrid structures involving I RHD i Exon 4 (and also Exon 3 in DFR-5),1,2 a point mutation in I RHD i Exon 2 is responsible for the new allele described in this work.
