Amino acid substitutions resulted from novel mutations 905A>G and 541T>C on ABO gene change highly conserved regions of the enzyme and may reduce the activity of the glycosyltransferases, leading to the B(x) phenotype.
A novel human leukocyte antigen-A (HLA-A) allele, A*0278, has been identified in a Chinese family using DNA-based typing and molecular cloning methods. The alleles A*0278 differs from its closest matching HLA sequence of A*0256 by a silent substitution at 102 A > C and by two replacement substitutions, 98T > A and 292 C > G in exon 2, resulting in a change of codon 33 from Phe (TTC) to Tyr (TAC) and codon 98 from His (CAC) to Asp (GAC). Serology study revealed that A*0278 is associated with HLA-A2 broad specificity. A polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific primers-based assay was developed to identify A*0278. Family study indicated that the propositus inhered his father's HLA haplotype A*0278, B*35, DRB1*15. No further individuals of A*0278 were found in 5000 Chinese bone marrow donor volunteers.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
