Molecular characterization of erythrocyte glycophorin C variants.

Blood - 1 Feb 1991

Chang S, Reid M E, Conboy J, Kan Y W, Mohandas N

Abstract excerpt

Human erythrocyte glycophorin C plays a functionally important role in maintaining erythrocyte shape and regulating membrane mechanical stability. Immunochemical and serologic studies have identified a number of glycophorin C variants that include the Yus, Gerbich, and Webb phenotypes. We report here the molecular characterization of these variants. Amplification of glycophorin C mRNA from the Yus phenotype,...
