Molecular genetic basis of red cell markers and its forensic application.

Abstract：

:(1) The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify Rh-related cDNAs from erythroid cells cultured by the selective two-phase liquid culture system for human erythroid progenitors in peripheral blood. Two Rh polypeptide cDNAs have been isolated from the PCR products and tentatively designated RhPI cDNA and RhPII cDNA. Both cDNA clones have an open reading frame composed of 1251 nucleotides. The RhPI cDNA clone shows a single nucleotide substitution with no amino acid substitution compared with the published sequence. The RhPII cDNA clone differs from the above by 41 nucleotide substitutions in the open reading frame, resulting in 31 amino acid substitutions. Besides these cDNA clones, eleven and five truncated isoforms of the RhPI and RhPII cDNAs, have been isolated, respectively. (2) The promoter region of the Duffy gene was cloned by IPCR of 1.1 kb SacI fragment and the 3' flanking sequence was cloned by IPCR of 1.9 kb EcoRI fragment. The IPCR products contained the known Duffy cDNA sequence without introns. By comparing the coding area of the Duffy gene in 28 Duffy positive individuals, we elucidated that one base change that results in an amino acid substitution (GAT(Asp44)-->GGT(Gly)) is in accordance with the Fya/Fyb polymorphism. This fact proves that the Duffy cDNA and its gene encode the Duffy blood group system. (3) Two common alleles in Esterase D (EsD) polymorphism, EsD1 and EsD2 were characterized by the substitution of one amino acid (Gly-Glu) caused by the point mutation of one nucleotide (G-A). The point mutation between cDNAs of EsD1 and EsD2 alleles was detectable as restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) using Ssp1. The RFLP makes it possible to determine the EsD phenotypes using DNA samples from forensic materials without EsD enzymatic activity. (4) The authors report studies on 19 pairs of donors and recipients in bone marrow transplantation. A broad range of genetic markers at 42 gene loci, including one DNA marker 11 red blood cell markers, five human lymphocyte antigen types, 12 serum protein markers, five red cell enzyme markers, and eight salivary markers was evaluated before and after BMT over about 2 months. As a result, 11 out of 42 gene loci of genetic markers in recipients were transformed into the donor type.
