RESUMO

ABO blood system is the most important blood group in transfusional medicine. Actualy, the blood group type in blood donors and receptors is determined by serological laboratorial tests, complemented by human DNA blood tests that assure the correct blood group determination for the blood donor and receptor, optimizing transfusional safety. Studies on blood subgroup A3 e A3B demonstrated a large subgroup heterogenity, with various associated molecular changes in small sample groups tested. At present study, it was proposed investigation about the frequency and the types of molecular alterations occuring among 100 blood donors samples phenotyped as A3 e A3B. These samples are selected after tub and gel tests analysis of 12.283 A and AB samples of healthy blood donors of both sex from Fundação Pró-Sangue/Hemocentro de São Paulo. Thirteen A3 and 87 A3B samples were selected, each sample genomic DNA was extracted and quantified and it was performed DNA amplification by alellic specific polimerase chain reaction (PCR-ASP). It was studied exon 7 ABO gene mutations 467C>T, 829G>A, 871G>A and 1060C>A (del C). Amplification results pointed that a new genotipe is present at these A3 and A3B subgroup, named in this study as the A30*/ genotipe (sequencing confirmation needed); these genotipe is present in 30.7% A3 samples and in 58.6% A3B samples (A30*/B10*). However, it was detected the ulterior decrived genotipes: A302 present in 30.7% A3 samples (A302/A301) and in 17.1% A3B samples (A302/B104); for subgroup A3 it was observed the genotipes A301/A301, A302/A302 (one sample each) and the presence of 871G>A mutation at 9 A3 samples; 467 C>T and 1060 C>A (del C) exon 7 ABO gene mutations descrived at A2 e A2B samples, are very frequents at these A3 e A3B samples tested.
