Three uncommon stable Gm haplotypes, Gm3;23;--, Gm1,2,17;..;-- and Gm1,17;..;-- have been transmitted through 3 generations of two related Lebanese and Syrian families. No pathological consequence was noted in seven individuals, aged 14--65, whose sera were deficient for all the allotypes carried by the IgG3 chains. Among the different genetic events which could have produced these haplotypes (alteration of a regulatory gene, point mutation, gene hybridization, gene deletion), it appears that a structural deletion is the most probable explanation. The observed data can be explained by either a partial or a total deletion of the constant portion of the IgG3 heavy chain.
三种不常见的稳定Gm单倍型,即Gm3;23;--、Gm1,2,17;..;--和Gm1,17;..;--,已在两个有亲缘关系的黎巴嫩和叙利亚家族中传递了三代。在14至65岁的7名个体中未观察到病理后果,这些个体的血清缺乏IgG3链携带的所有同种异型。在可能产生这些单倍型的不同遗传事件(调节基因改变、点突变、基因杂交、基因缺失)中,结构缺失似乎是最有可能的解释。观察到的数据可以通过IgG3重链恒定区的部分或完全缺失来解释。
