BB LEC - ABO Blood System Flashcards
most important system in transfusion and transplanta1on therapy
ABO BLOOD GROUP SYSTEM
the only blood group system in which individuals have an1bodies in their serum to an1gens that are absent from their RBCs
ABO BLOOD GROUP SYSTEM
drew blood from himself and five associates, separated the cells and serum, and then mixed each cell sample with each serum. He was inadvertently the first individual to perform forward and reverse grouping.

D-galactose
how many percent of all individuals possess the H gene.
99.99%
The forma1on of ABH antigens results from the interaction of genes at three separate loci what are these loci
(ABO, Hh, and Se)
A, B, and H an1gens are formed from the same basic precursor material called
(called a paragloboside or glycan)
On the __ day of fetal life, attachment of immunodominant sugars occurs on the RBC membrane and it is dependent on ABH genes inherited.
37th
antigens fully developed by what age
2-4 YEARS
is actually the precursor structure on which A and B an1gens are made
H antigen
The ___ genes are closely linked and located on chromosome 19
H and Se
The H and Se genes are closely linked and located on chromosome ?
19
what gene must be inherited to form the ABO antigens on the RBCs
H
what gene must be inherited to form the ABO antigens in secretions.
Se
what type of precursor substance
terminal galactose on the precursor substance is attached to the N-acetylglucosamine in a beta 1 → 4 linkage
type 2
what type of precursor substance
beta 1 → 3 linkage between galactose and N-acetylglucosamin
type 3
ABH antigens on the RBC are constructed on oligosaccharide chains of a type ?? precursor substance.
