galactose
what does chrom 9 code for
transferase to place A or B antigen depending on gene
No
Empty
what does chrom 19 code for
FUT1,2,3 that code for transferase to put fucose on carb chains (RBC, secretions)
FUT 1

codes for type 1 substances
- Se gene
type 1 substances

what does secretion gene do
codes for transferase to act on type 1 substances to make an H substance

where does FUT 3 act
fucosyl transferase adds fucose to subterminal location on H chain
- lewis gene (Le)
