25
Q

Acquired B phenotype

A

Type A person with enteric Gi rods
forward type is discrepant with weak (1-2+) reaction to anti-B sera
the bacteria deacetylate GalNAc to galactosamine (which looks similar to galactose)

26
Q

Bombay phenotype

A

no Se or H gene (hh,sese)

strong anti-H, all are type O

27
Q

Parabombay phenotype

A

have Se gene, but not H
Serum/secretion testing shows free H
have anti-H in serum

28
Q

Lewis blood group has Type ___ chains

A

Type 1 (floating in plasma)

29
Q

How is Lewis A made

A

Le gene (FUT3) adds fucose to subterminal GalNAc = LeA

30
Q

How is Lewis B made

A

in secretors, FUT 2 adds fucose to LeA to make LeB

31
Q

Person with Se gene and Le gene is

A

Lewis B

32
Q

Lewis antigens are/aren’t tightly bound to RBCs

A

Are NOT

33
Q

% of blacks vs white who are Lewis negative

A

22% AA

6% Caucasians

34
Q

Lewis Ags during pregnancy

A

decrease, may look Le(a-, b-) and make Abs
