Position of human blood group O(H) and phenotype-determining enzymes in growth and infectious disease.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Aug 2018

Arend Peter

Abstract excerpt

The human ABO(H) blood group phenotypes arise from the evolutionarily oldest genetic system found in primate populations. While the blood group antigen A is considered the ancestral primordial structure, under the selective pressure of life-threatening diseases blood group O(H) came to dominate as the most frequently occurring blood group worldwide. Non-O(H) phenotypes demonstrate impaired formation of adaptive...
