little k
Active
Description
KEL is highly polymorphic. It has two major codominant alleles, k and K, which result from a SNP (698C→T), and the corresponding k and K antigens differ by a single amino acid change (T193M). Mostly IgG antibodies, so IgM is uncommon. Anti-K does not bind complement. If hemolysis does occur, it is extravascular in nature. Anti-K can cause a severe hemolytic transfusion reaction and severe fetal anemia. Beck L, Blood groups and red cell antigens. NCBI Bookself [Internet Book], 2005.
