Kell and Kx blood group systems.

Immunohematology - 1 Jan 2015

Denomme Gregory A

Abstract excerpt

The Kell and Kx blood group systems are expressed as covalently linked molecules on red blood cells (RBCs). The Kell blood group system is very polymorphic, with 35 antigens assigned to the system. The expression of Kell glycoprotein on RBCs is not critical to the erythrocyte function. However, the expression of KX is critical to normal morphology, and null mutations are associated with the McLeod...
