Figure 1 The 1-2-3–locus concept of human C4 and RCCX modular variations. This map of the human MHC class III region shows the physical length variants among the monomodular, bimodular, and trimodular RCCX structures. The MHC class I genes are located at the telomeric end; the MHC class II genes are located at the centromeric end.

Figure 2 Homoexpression of C4A in a trimodular LLL haplotype from a white family. A, Pedigree of the family C008. B, Genomic TaqI RFLP, to show the RCCX modular variations. C, Genomic PshAI-RFLP, to show the number of RCCX modules by determining the relative dosages of RP2 and RP1. D, PmeI-PFGE analysis, to show the length variants of RCCX haplotypes. E, Immunofixation, to show the relative quantities of C4A and C4B allotypes. F, PshAI-PvuII RFLP, to show the relative dosage of C4A and C4B genes in each individual. G, LSP-RFLP analysis, to determine the relative dosage of C4A and C4B. The dark-background panels are ethidium bromide–stained pictures that contain artifact results because of heteroduplexes. The light-background pictures are results of autoradiography corresponding to LSP-RFLP images free of heteroduplex effects.

B, PmeI PFGE of the length variants in RCCX haplotypes. C, Immunofixation of human complement C3 (anti-C3) and C4 (anti-C4). The sample from lane 1A was taken from the pediatric patient with SLE (CS-P4) while her disease was in remission; the sample from lane 1 was taken from the patient in disease flare. Lanes 2 and 3 were samples from CS-M4 and CS-F4, respectively. D, Genomic PshAI-PvuII RFLP, to determine the relative dosage of C4A and C4B.

Figure 6 Determining the configurations of long and short C4A and C4B genes in multi-modular RCCX structures. A, PacI-PFGE analysis of long or short C4 genes linked to TNXA and TNXB. B, A scheme illustrating the locations (upward arrows) and size of the PacI restriction fragments containing the C4 and TNX in three different length variants. C, Exon-intron structure of a short C4 gene and PCR strategy to amplify the genomic region between exons 9 and 31. E9.5 and E31.3 are primers used for amplification of the 7.0-kb genomic fragment for the short C4 gene. The PshAI restriction maps for the C4A and C4B genes are shown in red and blue, respectively. D, Restriction analysis of the PCR fragments from four different individuals with short C4. Lanes 1–4 are undigested PCR products of E9.5-E31.3. Lanes 5–8 are digested with PshAI. Lanes 1 and 5 are from an individual with homozygous, monomodular short C4B genes. E, Southern blot analysis of the genomic fragments in panel D, using a C4d exons 22–25 probe.
