罕见的CisAB与B(A)血型的基因型研究

目的　研究ABO血型系统中血清定型与基因型不一致的情况 ,通过核苷酸序列分析 ,最终阐明其真正血型。方法　应用吸收放散等实验 ,研究血清学实验中ABO正反定型不一致的情况 ,同时采用聚合酶链反应 限制性片段长度多态性方法 ,进行ABO初步基因分型 ,对二者结果矛盾的特殊标本则通过克隆测序了解他们的ABO基因第 6和第 7外显子的核苷酸序列构成。结果　在近年来收集到的并且做过基因分型的 3 5例ABO亚型标本中 ,有 7例标本血清学与基因分型不一致 ,血清学为AB亚型但基因分型却具有O基因。4例ABx ,基因分型均为A 10 2 /O ,其A基因在A 10 1的基础上 ,均有nt467(C→T)和nt80 3位 (G→C)的点突变 ,即都属于CisAB 0 1等位基因 ,真正的基因型是CisAB/O ;另外 3例血清学疑为AxB ,基因分型为BO的个体 ,除皆具有正常O基因外 ,其B基因在正常B等位基因的基础上 ,均发生单碱基突变 ,其中 1例存在nt70 0 (C→G) ,属于已经报道的B(A) 70 0等位基因 ;另外 2例无亲缘关系标本的B基因均存在新的nt64 0 (A→G)的点突变 ,导致 2 14位甲硫氨酸被缬氨酸置换。结论　通过核苷酸序列分析 ,证实 7例血清学表现为AB亚型而具有正常O基因的个体 ,4例是罕见的CisAB ,3例为B(A )型 ;同时在中国汉族ABO亚型人群中 ,检出一种新的B(A)

Molecular study on CisAB and B(A) blood group in Chinese individuals

OBJECTIVE: This is a study on some ABO subgroup samples which show discordant results of serological and molecular blood typing, the aim is to clarify their true ABO type by means of nucleotide analysis on exons 6 and 7 of their ABO gene. METHODS: Absorb-elution test and family investigation were conducted to study 7 samples which were involved in ABO grouping discrepancies. Duplex polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) method was used to identify their ABO genotypes. PCR products of exons 6 and 7 were cloned and sequenced. RESULTS: All the 7 ABO subgroup samples with the discordant results of serological and molecular blood typing were found to have the normal O gene. Four out of them were typed as ABsub by serology, they were all of the A*102/O genotype. Sequencing analysis found all their A gene having the nt467 (C-->T) and nt803 (G-->C) mutation by comparison with the A*101 allele, i.e. their real type should be CisAB/O. Three out of 7 were typed as AsubB by serology and as BO by genotype; and point mutation was detected in all of their B gene. One of them had the nt700 (C-->G) mutation, the other 2 unrelated individuals had the novel nt640 (A-->G) mutation in their B alleles. CONCLUSION: Through nucleotide analysis, 7 samples have been typed as AB subgroup in serology with the normal O gene, their real ABO type being CisAB in 4 cases and B(A) in 3 cases. At the same time, a kind of novel B (A)640 allele has been uncovered in this study.
