anti-Kell Blood Group, Metallo-Endopeptidase (KEL) Anticorps

Mouse (Murine) Kell Blood Group, Metallo-Endopeptidase (KEL) interaction partners

1. B cells require signaling from IFN-alpha/beta to produce alloantibodies to the human KEL glycoprotein in mice

2. Absence of Kell was accompanied by changes in erythrocyte K(+), Mg(2 (Montrer MCOLN1 Anticorps)+), Na(+) & Ca(2 (Montrer CA2 Anticorps)+) transport associated with changes in mean cellular volume & corpuscular hemoglobin (Montrer HBB Anticorps) concentration mean. Kel loss increased Mg(2 (Montrer MCOLN1 Anticorps)+) permeability.

Human Kell Blood Group, Metallo-Endopeptidase (KEL) interaction partners

1. The expression of Kell glycoprotein on RBCs is not critical to the erythrocyte function

2. Through molecular genotyping we also identified polymorphisms in RhCE (Montrer RHCE Anticorps), Kell, Duffy, Colton, Lutheran and Scianna loci in donors and patients.

3. High-throughput Kell, Kidd, and Duffy matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization, time-of-flight mass spectrometry-based blood group (Montrer DARC Anticorps) genotyping of 4000 donors shows close to full concordance with serotyping and detects new alleles.

4. x-ray analysis of Kell blood group (Montrer XK Anticorps) protein

5. Kell K2 antigen is a catalytically active metalloprotease, but the rare Kell K1 antigen is inactive

6. KEL6 red blood cells have endothelin-3 (Montrer EDN3 Anticorps)-converting enzyme activity

7. Results demonstrate the lack of Kell expression in rodent neuronal cells and strongly suggest the same for human cerebral tissue, in which the Kellprotein was exclusively observed on RBCs in cerebral blood vessels.
