To screen for Vel- rare blood type donors and determine the frequency of SMIM1 c.64_80del allele in Yili Prefecture of Xinjiang, China.
DNA pooling and PCR-sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) was conducted to screen individuals carrying the SMIM1 c.64_80del variant, and Sanger sequencing of SMIM1 exon 3 was carried out to verify the genotype of those with the variation. SMIM1 intron 2 was also sequenced to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that may affect the expression of Vel antigen.
Among 3328 blood donors, 14 were identified as heterozygotes for the SMIM1 c.64_80del allele, its allele frequency was 0.21%; no homozygous SMIM1 c.64_80 deletions was found. For SNP rs1175550, all of the 14 individuals had an AA genotype, among whom 5 carried heterozygous 7111ins GCA variant in intron 2.
The allelic frequency of SMIM1 c.64_80del in Yili area is approximately 0.21%, which is reported for the first time.
筛选Vel稀有血型献血者,并确定中国新疆伊犁地区SMIM1基因c.64_80del等位基因的频率。
采用DNA池化和聚合酶链反应-序列特异性引物(PCR-SSP)技术筛选携带SMIM1基因c.64_80del变异的个体,并对SMIM1基因第3外显子进行Sanger测序以验证变异个体的基因型。同时对SMIM1基因内含子2进行测序,以鉴定可能影响Vel抗原表达的单核苷酸多态性(SNP)。
在3328名献血者中,有14人被鉴定为SMIM1基因c.64_80del等位基因的杂合子,其等位基因频率为0.21%;未发现SMIM1基因c.64_80纯合缺失。对于SNP rs1175550,14名个体均为AA基因型,其中5人在第2内含子中携带杂合的7111ins GCA变异。
伊犁地区SMIM1基因c.64_80del等位基因频率约为0.21%,此为首次报道。
