The cell surface expression of H-2L, a major transplantation antigen, was compared by flow microfluorometry to the expression of products of H-2K and H-2D loci, using monoclonal antibodies. By this methodology, the ontogeny and tissue distribution of Ld antigens were found to be indistinguishable from those of the K and D antigens. In a reciprocal blocking assay, using fluorescein-labeled test reagents, it was shown that monoclonals anti-H-2.65 and anti-H-2.64 did not inhibit the binding of each other. These results suggest that the alloantigenic determinants H-2.64 and H-2.65 are located at distinct sites on Ld molecules. Quantitative comparisons using the fluorescein-labeled monoclonal reagents indicated that Ld molecules are expressed at 2- to 3-fold lower levels on the cell surface compared with K and D molecules. These findings give new credence to a "3-locus" model for the major histocompatibility complex of man and mouse, where H-2L and HLA-C share several homologies that are unique and distinguish them from the other histocompatibility loci.
