A antigen and B antibodies

Type B antigens and Type A antibodies
|
|
No antigens and A and B antibodies
|
|
A and B antigens and no antibodies
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -blood group O – has no antigens, but both anti-A and anti-B antibodies in the plasma. blood group AB – has both A and B antigens, but no antibodies.
Detailed explanation-2: -Group AB individuals have neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies in their plasma. Group AB plasma can therefore be given to patients of any ABO blood group and is often referred to as the universal plasma donor.
Detailed explanation-3: -ABO antigens are added to N-linked oligosaccharide chains on the VWF subunit. Thus patients with the type O blood group genotype lack the functional glycosyltransferase that adds N-acetylgalactosamine and D-galactose to the H antigen on VWF in blood group A and B subjects, respectively.
