On the Importance of Being Heterozygote – Effects of Rh-Genotype on the Physical and Mental Health of a Non-Clinical Population

2021-05-27

Abstract excerpt

Human populations, especially European, are polymorphic in the RHD gene. A significant fraction of their members carries two copies of a mutated (deleted) allele, which results in their Rh-negative blood type. Theoretically, this polymorphism should be unstable. Carriers of the less frequent allele are penalized by reduced fertility because of the immunization of Rh-negative mothers by their Rh-positive babies, wh...
