The chromosomal distribution of alleles for HLA-A, -B, -C and -DR and the serum complement protein alleles of factor B and C2 and C4 was studied in normal Caucasian families. Eight combinations of HLA-B, DR, BF, C2, C4A and C4B markers occurred in haplotypes at frequencies significantly higher than expected. In these combinations, which were defined as extended major histocompatibility complex haplotypes, HLA-A showed limited variation. A possible mechanism for the maintenance of extended haplotypes are human analogs of murine t mutants which are characterized by crossover suppression and male transmission bias. One human 6p haplotype, HLA-B8, DR3, SCO1, GLO2, was transmitted from males to 83% of their offspring. The same haplotype with GLO1 had no transmission bias. This GLO2-marked chromosome apparently is a human analog of a murine t mutant.
