Abstract

Abstract: The Cromer blood group system consists of 19 antigens (16 of high prevalence and 3 of low prevalence). This study describes the identification and characterization of a new Cromer high‐prevalence antigen, named CORS. The CORS‐negative proband carries a c.713G>A substitution in the CD55 gene, resulting in the substitution of glycine 238 into a glutamic acid (p.Gly238Glu).
