The Kell blood group system: Kell and XK membrane proteins.

Seminars in hematology - 1 Apr 2000

Lee S, Russo D, Redman C M

Abstract excerpt

Two membrane proteins express the antigens that comprise the Kell blood group system. A single antigen, Kx, is carried on XK, a 440-amino acid protein that spans the membrane 10 times, and more than 20 antigens reside on Kell, a 93-kd, type II glycoprotein. XK and Kell are linked, close to the membrane surface, by a single disulfide bond between Kell cysteine 72 and XK cysteine 347. Although primarily expressed...
