T
he inherited structural polymorphism in the fourth component of complement was studied in the family of a child with homozygous deficiency of this protein. It was shown that a number of family members, including the child's parents, carried a C4 haplotype, C4A*QO C4B*QO, that produced no detectable protein at either the Chido (C4B) or Rodgers (C4A) locus. The family contained individuals with one, two, three, or four expressed C4 genes, and the mean serum C4 levels in such individuals roughly reflected the number of structural genes.

Having trouble reading a PDF?
PDFs are designed to be printed out and read, but if you prefer to read them online, you may find it easier if you increase the view size to 125%.
Having trouble saving a PDF?
Many versions of the free Acrobat Reader do not
allow Save. You must instead save the PDF from the JCI Online page you downloaded it from. PC users:
Right-click on the Download link and choose the option that says something like "Save Link As...".
Mac users should hold the mouse button down on the link to get these same options.
Having trouble printing a PDF?
- Try printing one page at a time or to a newer printer.
- Try saving the file to disk before printing rather than opening it "on the fly." This requires that you
configure your browser to "Save" rather than "Launch Application" for the file type "application/pdf", and can
usually be done in the "Helper Applications" options.
- Make sure you are using the latest version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader.
