The clearly defined entity in human genetics is the RHD gene, which encodes the RhD protein and is a key component of the Rh blood group system.
The RHD gene is located on chromosome 1 (1p36.11) and comprises multiple exons that collectively produce the
Genetic variation in RHD includes weak D and partial D variants, which can influence blood typing and
In practice, "RHDgen" may appear as an alias or shorthand in certain data sets or studies, but
