It was determined in previous investigations that the structure of the minisatellite enhancer was specific to A, B, and O alleles. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection and a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) strategy were used to compare the quantities of the A and B transcripts in AB-genotype cells, including peripheral blood cells and cancer cell line with the group AB phenotype. The 5′ 3.7-kb regions of the A and B genes were cloned and the sequences compared. The transcriptional activities of the 5′ segments of the A and B genes were compared with luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS: Both real-time PCR and PCR-RFLP analyses show that there is evidently more of the B transcript in the AB-genotype cells. It was demonstrated that the 5′ segment of the B gene had a markedly higher transcription-activation activity relative to the A gene. This difference in transcription capability appears to result from the variation in minisatellite-enhancer structures in the A and B genes, which contain one and four repeats of the 43-bp enhancer unit, respectively. CONCLUSION: Our study indicates that the majority of steady-state mRNA within AB-genotype cells is composed of the B transcript and that this phenomenon is due to the predominant expression of the B gene relative to the A gene. ? 2006 American Association of Blood Banks. |
