To explore the molecular basis for an individual with a rare variant of Bw37 phenotype.
Tube agglutination testing was used to determine the ABO blood groups. Genotyping were carried out using polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) and direct sequencing for exons 6 and 7 of the ABO locus.
Serologic testing of the proband showed that he was weak B for the positive ABO blood typing and B for the negative blood typing. The genotype of him was determined as B/B by PCR-SSP. DNA sequencing showed that he has harbored c.297A>G, c.526C>G, c.657C>T, c.703G>A, c.796C>A, c.803G>C and c.930G>A variants, which have resulted in p.R176G, p.G235S and p.G268A substitutions. The genotypes of the proband and his mother were identified as ABOBw37/B101 and ABOO.01.02/ABO*O.01.01, respectively.
Serological identification combined with genotyping should be considered for the verification of ABO subtypes.
探究具有罕见Bw37表型变异个体的分子基础。
采用试管凝集试验确定ABO血型。使用聚合酶链反应-序列特异性引物(PCR-SSP)和对ABO基因座外显子6和7进行直接测序进行基因分型。
先证者的血清学检测显示,其正向ABO血型分型为弱B型,反向血型分型为B型。通过PCR-SSP确定其基因型为B/B。DNA测序显示他携带了c.297A>G、c.526C>G、c.657C>T、c.703G>A、c.796C>A、c.803G>C和c.930G>A变异,这些变异导致了p.R176G、p.G235S和p.G268A替换。先证者及其母亲的基因型分别鉴定为ABOBw37/B101和ABOO.01.02/ABO*O.01.01。
ABO亚型的验证应考虑血清学鉴定与基因分型相结合。
