ABO Blood Group Flashcards
what was the first blood group to be ID
ABO
t or F: the ABO blood group has naturally occurring ab
T
where do expected abs come from
Environmental factors
what kind of immunoglobulin are anti a anti b abs
IgMs
what do anti A and Anti b activate
complement
what kind of rejection occurs if a pt is transfused with ABO incompatible blood
acute humeral rejection
how is the ABO blood group inherited
mendelian genetics
what kind of alleles are the ABO gene
autosomal co-dominant
what chromosome has the ABO locus
chromosome 9
if both parents are type A can they produce a type O baby
yes because mom and dad could each have 1 O gene and the baby could get both
what is the heterozygous form of type A blood
AO
what is the homozygous of type A blood
AA
what is the genotype of type O blood
OO
what is the genotype of type AB blood
AB
what ag do type O pt have
H
what kind of structure do ags have
carbohydrate
what genes have products that affect the expression of ags
ABO, Hh, and Sese
what kind of sugar chain is the H precursor substance
4 sugar chain
what sugar is added to the H precursor substance
L-fucose
where is the H gene located
on type 2 chains beta 1 –> 4 linkage
H gene rxn with precursor substance + _____ = __ ag
fucose, H
what gene is required for the production of A or B ags
H gene
is the h gene amorph
yes
what adds sugars to the H ag to make A or B ags
glycosyltransferases
T or F: all H genes are converted into A or B ags
F
what blood groups have the most H ag (most to least)
O > A2 > B > A2B > A1 >A1B
what is the name for this genotype hh
bombay
what RBC ag do Bombay pt have
none
what plasma ab do Bombay pt have
potent anti H, anti A, and anti B
what is the location of H (FUT 1) gene
chromosome 19
what is the location of Se (FUT 2) gene
chromosome 19
if a person has A or B ags in their body fluids what are they considered
secretors
