Location of the granulocyte‐specific antigen LAN on the Fc‐receptor III

SUMMARY. This report investigates the location of the binding site of a recently described granulocyte‐specific alloantibody, designated LAN, which causes alloimmune neonatal neutropenia. The LAN antigen is shown to be situated on the Fc‐receptor III (FcRIII).
