MULTIPLE ALLELES & BLOOD GROUPING
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the class you will be able to:
• Define allele and multiple alleles
• Explain blood groups
• Recall the KARL LANDSTEINER’s law
• Identify the genotype of the blood groups
• Apply genetics to predict blood group
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
ALLELE
An Allele is an alternative form of a same gene, located on
same locus on the homologous chromosomes.
Alleles were first defined by Gregor Mendel in the law of
segregation
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
MULTIPLE ALLELES
• According to Altenburg, “Three or more kinds of gene which
occupy the same locus are referred to as multiple alleles.”
• Multiple alleles are defined as three or more alternative
form of a same gene, located on same locus on the
homologous chromosomes, coding for certain characteristic
in a population.
• EXAMPLE: ABO BLOOD GROUP (Has three alleles)
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
BLOOD
Blood is a specialized body fluid.
It has four main components:
1. Plasma
2. Red blood cells
3. White blood cells
4. Platelets
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
ABO BLOOD GROUPS
• ABO blood group in Human
was discovered by KARL
LANDSTEINER in 1901.
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
ABO BLOOD GROUPS
• Karl Landsteiner (1868-1943),
the Austrian-born American
immunologist.
• He, has been titled as the
“father of immunology”.
• He discovered the blood
groups (ABO) and framed the
Landsteiner’s Law by 1904.
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
RBC
ABO BLOOD GROUPS
• The ABO system is
characterized by the presence
or absence of antigens on the
surface of Red Blood Cells.

ABO BLOOD GROUPS
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
LAWS OF KARL LANDSTEINER
1. If an ANTIGEN is present in
the red cells of a blood, the
corresponding ANTIBODY
must be absent from the
plasma.
2. If an ANTIGEN is absent in
the red cells of a blood, the
corresponding ANTIBODY
must be present in the
plasma.

GENETICS OF ABO BLOOD SYSTEM
• The ABO blood type is inherited in an Autosomal Co-
Dominant fashion.
• The ABO locus is located on chromosome 9 at 9q34.1-q34.2
consisting 18 kb of genomic DNA.
• The A and B alleles differ from each other by seven
nucleotide substitutions
• The gene controlling ABO blood type is labeled as I.
• The alleles are designated as IA, IB and IO (or i).
Mr. Dinabandhu Barad, MSc Tutor, SNC, SOA, DTU
GENETICS OF ABO BLOOD SYSTEM
• Where, I → Isoagglutinogen (antigen)
• IA → Allele for A antigen
• IB → Allele for B antigen
• IO → Allele for o antigen
• Dominance Hierarchy among alleles; IA = IB > IO
• i.e., Alleles IA & IB are dominant over IO
• Alleles IA & IB are Co-dominant
