A P1 phage clone containing the near complete protein coding region of the human histo-blood group ABO gene locus was isolated and characterized. The insert was estimated at approximately 41 kp, and an approximately 20 kbp BamHI fragment contained the near complete coding region as evaluated by Southern blot analysis. Intron/exon boundaries were determined and the coding region was found to span at least seven exons. In situ hybridization to metaphase chromosomes confirmed the predicted localization to 9q34.

D000017 ABO Blood-Group System The major human blood type system which depends on the presence or absence of two antigens A and B. Type O occurs when neither A nor B is present and AB when both are present. A and B are genetic factors that determine the presence of enzymes for the synthesis of certain glycoproteins mainly in the red cell membrane.
