Genetic variation of glycophorins and infectious disease.

Immunogenetics - 1 Jun 2023

Hollox Edward J, Louzada Sandra

Abstract excerpt

Glycophorins are transmembrane proteins of red blood cells (RBCs), heavily glycosylated on their external-facing surface. In humans, there are four glycophorin proteins, glycophorins A, B, C and D. Glycophorins A and B are encoded by two similar genes GYPA and GYPB, and glycophorin C and glycophorin D are encoded by a single gene, GYPC. The exact function of glycophorins remains unclear. However, given their...
