Genetic analysis of an H-2 mutant, B6.C-H-2 ba , using cell-mediated lympholysis: T- and B-cell dictionaries for histocompatibility determinants are different (1974)

Shreffler, Donald C., Young, H., Nabholz, M., Meo, T., Rijnbeek, A., Miggiano, V.

B6.C-H-2 ba [H (z1)] is a mutant derived from C57BL/6. The two strains mutually reject their skingrafts and are incompatible in the mixed leucocyte reaction (MLR) and in cell-mediated lympholysis...

Quantitative variations in the expression of the mouse serum antigen Ss and its sex-limited allotype Slp (1974)

Shreffler, Donald C., Hansen, T. H., Krasteff, T. N.

A radial immunodiffusion assay for quantitation of the Ss and Slp serum antigens is described. Significant differences between the mean serum concentrations of Ss and Slp were found among various...

A sex-limited serum protein variant in the mouse: Hormonal control of phenotypic expression (1971)

Passmore, Howard C., Shreffler, Donald C.

The sex-limited protein (Slp) antigen of the mouse is first detected in the serum of strain DBA/2J males at 5–6 weeks of age and reaches full adult levels by 10 weeks. This antigen is normally...

Two new ceruloplasmin variants in Negroes—Data on three populations (1970)

Shreffler, Donald C., Shokeir, M. H. K.

Two new electrophoretic variants in human serum ceruloplasmin are described. The first, called Cp New Haven (CpNH), is determined by an allele at the same autosomal locus which controls the...

A sex-limited serum protein variant in the mouse: Inheritance and association with the H-2 region (1970)

Shreffler, Donald C., Passmore, Howard C.

An alloantiserum produced in the mouse has been used to detect an antigen which is present only in male serum from certain inbred strains of mice, e.g., DBA/2J, A/J, and BALB/c. Genetic tests reveal...

The Seminole Indians of Florida: Morphology and serology (1970)

Pollitzer, William S., Rucknagel, Donald L., Tashian, Richard E., Shreffler, Donald C., Leyshon, Webster C., Namboodiri, Kadambari, ...

The Seminole Indians of Florida were studied on their three reservations for blood types, red cell enzymes, serum proteins, physical measurements, and relationships. Both serologic and morphologic...

Electrophoretic variation in human serum ceruloplasmin: A new genetic polymorphism (1967)

Shreffler, Donald C., Brewer, George J., Gall, John C., Honeyman, Merton S.

Through the application of a specific oxidase stain to results of starch gel electrophoresis of human serum, three different electrophoretic forms of ceruloplasmin—denoted CpA (fast), CpB...

Inheritance of quantitative expression of erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity in the Negro—a twin study (1967)

Shreffler, Donald C., Hames, Curtis, Honeyman, Merton S., Brewer, George J., Gall, John C., Gershowitz, Henry, ...

Studies have been conducted on eight sets of monozygous and nine sets of dizygous female Negro twins, both members of whom were heterozygous for G-6-PD deficiency. Twins were studied both by assay of...
