背景(Background)
This gene encodes proteins related to the first discovered blood group system, ABO. Which allele is present in an individual determines the blood group. The 'O' blood group is caused by a deletion of guanine-258 near the N-terminus of the protein which results in a frameshift and translation of an almost entirely different protein. Individuals with the A, B, and AB alleles express glycosyltransferase activities that convert the H antigen into the A or B antigen. Other minor alleles have been found for this gene.

功能
catalytic activity:UDP-galactose + alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->2)-D-galactosyl-R = UDP + alpha-D-galactosyl-(1->3)-(alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->2))-D-galactosyl-R.,catalytic activity:UDP-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine + glycoprotein-alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->2)-D-galactose = UDP + glycoprotein-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosaminyl-(1->3)-(alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->2))-D-galactose.,cofactor:Binds 1 manganese ion per subunit.,domain:The conserved DXD motif is involved in cofactor binding. The manganese ion interacts with the beta-phosphate group of UDP and may also have a role in catalysis.,function:This protein is the basis of the ABO blood group system. The histo-blood group ABO involves three carbohydrate antigens: A, B, and H. A, B, and AB individuals express a glycosyltransferase activity that converts the H antigen to the A antigen (by addition of UDP-GalNAc) or to the B antigen (by addition of UDP-Gal), whereas O individu
