16. The Type A Transferase enzyme, attaches N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) to H-antigen epitopes; the Type B Transferase enzyme instead transfers galactose (Gal) to the H-antigen. Individuals with Type A blood thus have at minimum one copy of the active Type A Transferase, those with Type B have at minimum one copy of the active Type B Transferase, those with Type AB have one active copy of each, those with Type O have neither. Imagine an AB individual who acquires a mutation in their Type B Transferase gene that allows it to be active with either Gal or GalNAc. Make sure to include a brief justification for your answer to each question below. a. What blood type antigens would this individual express? b. If this individual had a child with a normal O partner, what possible blood type antigens could the child express? c. If this individual had a child with a homozygous dominant B partner (BB), what possible blood type antigens could the child express?

8) In addition to the ABO self-antigen system, another red blood cell self-antigen system is the Rh factor. The gene for this self=antigen system exhibits complete dominance with Rh positive (the presence of self-antigen Rh) being completely dominant over Rh negative (the absence of the self-antigen Rh). Rh positive is symbolized as + and Rh negative is symbolized as -. a. Geraldo has B- blood and Arline has O+ blood. Geraldo’s father has B+ blood and his mother has O- blood.
