Beyond the rare blood group Vel, uncovering the functions of SMIM1 in blood and in other organs

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Vel is a universal antigen present on the red blood cells (RBCs) membrane, which defines the Vel-blood group system. The identification of Vel-encoding gene, SMIM1, suggested that this is a regulator of erythropoiesis. Its role in RBCs and potential role in other cells, however, remains largely unknown. Here, I aimed to characterise the role of SMIM1 in haematopoietic lineages and other organs by using two main ap...
