Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To establish a genotyping method for Diego, MNS and Kell blood groups based on quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) technology, and preliminarily apply it to the screening of rare blood groups in blood donors.
METHODS:Blood group gene standards containing heterozygous and homozygous alleles were prepared by blood group serological and PCR-SBT methods. Specific amplification primers and hybridization probes were designed, and explore to establish the qPCR method for detecting Diego, MNS, and Kell blood group genotypes. Then the established qPCR method was used to identify blood group genotypes of 186 blood donor samples.
RESULTS:A method based on qPCR technology was established to identify Dia/Dib, S/s and K/k blood group antigens. The genotyping results of the gene standard samples were consistent with the serological testing results and genotypes detected by PCR-SBT. qPCR testing of 186 samples identified 11 cases of DI*A/B heterozygosity and 19 cases of GYPB*S/s heterozygosity, and the rest were DI*B/B, GYPB*s/s, KEL*02/02 homozygosity. No rare blood group genotypes of DI*A/A, GYPB*S/S, KEL*01.01/01.01 were found.
CONCLUSION:The established qPCR method is suitable for genotyping on Diego, MNS and Kell blood group, and it can be used for batch screening of blood donors and the establishment of rare blood group bank.
