    Notes: Abstract Blood groups A, B and AB of cats (not related to human blood groups) are defined serologically with feline antisera. Five cats were blood typed and used in this study. Three cats were type B; two were type A. Two per cent suspensions of red blood cells (RBCs) from each cat were prepared and used in agglutination tests with 11 commercial lectins. Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins of non-immune origin. Most of these lectins agglutinated either all or none of the five samples of RBCs. However, wheat germ lectin (WGL) strongly agglutinated feline type B RBCs, but did not agglutinate type A RBCs. Thus WGL may be useful in feline blood typing, especially because the naturally occurring anti-B isoagglutinin is of low incidence and low titre.

    Thin layer chromatography of erythrocyte membrane glycolipids from type A and type B cats (1991)

    Notes: Abstract Erythrocyte membrane glycolipids from blood type A and type B cats were examined by thin layer chromatography. The results indicate that the major erythrocyte membrane glycolipid of type A cats is NeuGc-NeuGc-Galactose-Glucose-Ceramide ([NeuGc]2GD3), where NeuAc represents N-glycolyl-neuraminic acid. In contrast, the major erythrocyte membrane glycolipid of type B cats is NeuAc-NeuAc-Galactose-Glucose-Ceramide ([NeuAc]2GD3), where NeuAc represents N-acetylneuraminic acid. These major erythrocyte membrane glycolipids may be the blood group antigens for type A and type B cats, respectively. All type A cats may have enzymes to synthesise erythrocyte membrane glycolipids with terminal NeuAc, whereas type B cats may lack the gene for N-acetylneuraminic acid hydroxylase, the enzyme that converts NeuAc into NeuGc.
