blood_mn R Documentation
The MN blood system
Description
In humans, the main blood group systems are the ABO system, the Rh system,
and the MN system. The MN blood system is related to proteins of the red
blood cell plasma membrane. Its inheritance pattern is autosomal with
codominance, meaning that the heterozygous phenotype is distinct from both
homozygous phenotypes.
The three phenotypes are M, N, and MN. Their frequencies vary across
populations. Under the Hardy-Weinberg principle, allele and genotype
frequencies remain constant across generations in the absence of evolutionary
forces, implying that
\frac{x_{MM} x_{NN}}{x_{MN}^2} = \frac{1}{4}
where x_{MM} and x_{NN} are the genotype frequencies of the
homozygotes and x_{MN} is the genotype frequency of heterozygotes.
Usage
blood_mn
Format
An object of class data.frame with 49 rows and 5 columns.
