1
Q

Describe the biochemistry of ABO blood groups
carbs/receptors for

Q

Describe Bombay briefly
absense
still have
can do what but cant do?

A

absense of H ag
still have ABO genes
they can transfer but dont exhibit genes themselves

24
Q

What does Autosomal recessive Bombay mean
what genotype
means what cant be formed?
mutation

A

hh, genotype produces no H ag meaning no ABO ag can be formed on rbc (most likely mutation of FUT1 gene that silences the gene)

25
Q

How do Bombays appear serologically
fail to rxn w?

A

appear as type O, fail to react with Ulex Eruopaeus (H lectin)

26
Q

Briefly describe parabombay phenotypes
rbc devoid…
what mutation
all H ag …

A

rbcs completley devoid of H ag, and still exhibit small amount of A/B ag

FUT1 mutation - fucosyt with low activity

All H ag available is converted to A or B by the normal acting A/B OR FUT2 FUNCTIONS

27
Q

Describe the biochem of H substances
as pt matures
A/B can add..

A

as pt matures, type2 subst can become more branchy

The A/B can add their sugars to any H substance on the cell

28
Q

Describe fewer branching H sub
pt may appear….
subgroup…

A

if fewer branching H sub are transferred to A/B, the pt may appear as a weaker version of the blood type

Subgroup is more common in AB blood group

29
Q

Describe if only one H substance is transferred
pt sees a ….
may appear…

A

the pt sees a transferred other form, it may appear as foreign and ab can form

30
Q

Describe the A1 phenotype

A

dont recognize any version of A as foreign

+ with Anti-A/lectin (branched)

31
Q

Describe the A2 phenotype
+ with = with

A

+ with Anti-A
- w/ Anti-A/Lectin

32
Q

Briefly describe the subgroup A
quant. less….
testing
may make?

A

subgroup people have quant. less Ag converted from H substance
serologic
may make an Ab against the most common
expression of Ag

Q

T/F A subgroups are more common than B

A

44
Q

Describe the lectins and what they match up with

A

D. Biflorus - A1
B. simplificolia - B
U. Europaeus - H

45
Q

AB Anomalies
Describe Cis Ab
what on same?
Can pass?
Rare?

A

A and B transferase inherited on same chromosome
can pass AB type w/ O mate
rare splicing anomaly

46
Q

B(A) pt
can do?
vary of?
what anti

A

transferase is able to do both, prefers to transfer galactose
genetic variation of B gene
Polyclonal antiseria

47
Q

Aquired B pt
what group
cancer
what obs
bacteria?
what anti?

A

group A1
cancer of colon/rectum
intestinal obstruction
Gram neg septic
Acidified antisera

48
Q

Aquired B type can be from e.coli how does it do this?

A

via deacetylating enzyme that affects the A sugar

49
Q

Anti-A Anti-B. Anti-A,B
+4 +1 +4

A

A(B)?

50
Q

Why is the ABO system important

A

only system that the reciprocle Ab are consistent and predictable that have never been exposed to other human Ag (babies get them at 4 mos ish)

51
Q
