Molecular analyses of GYPB in African Brazilians.

Immunohematology - 1 Jan 2008

Omoto R, Reid M E, Castilho L

Abstract excerpt

The molecular background of variant forms of GYPB is not well studied in Brazilians of African descent. The present study was carried out to determine the molecular bases of the S-s- phenotype and the frequency of GYPB*S silent gene for the S-s+ phenotype in a blood donor population of African Brazilians. In this study, 165 blood samples from African Brazilians (Northeastern Brazil) who phenotyped as S-s- (n =...
