Further observations on the Birmingham chimaera.
The appropriate ABH-gene specified glycosyltransferases in the plasma of the Birmingham chimaera were estimated. These observatiions and the demonstration of A1Leb blood group specific glycosphingolipid in the plasma indicate that the minority population of red blood cells probably represents the true blood groups of the patient.
