Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Since the cloning in 1990 of cDNA corresponding to mRNA transcribed at the blood-group ABO locus, polymorphisms due to ethnic and/or phenotypic variations have been reported. Some subgroups have been explained at the molecular level, but unresolved samples are frequently encountered in the reference laboratory. RESULTS: ABO blood grouping discrepancies were investigated serologically and by ABO...
