Abstract: Sda is a high-frequency carbohydrate histo-blood group antigen, GalNAcβ1-4(NeuAcα2-3)Galβ, implicated in pathogen invasion, cancer, xenotransplantation and transfusion medicine. Complete lack of this glycan epitope results in the Sd(a−) phenotype observed in 4% of individuals who… read more here.
