BACKGROUND: PCR with sequence-specific priming using allele-specific fluorescent primers and analysis on a capillary sequencer is a standard technique for DNA typing. We aimed to adapt this method for donor typing in a medium-throughput setting.
METHODS: Using the Extract-N-Amp PCR system, we devised a set of eight multiplex allele-specific PCR with fluorescent primers for Fya/Fyb, Jka/Jkb, M/N, and S/s. The alleles of a gene were discriminated by the fluorescent color; donor and polymorphism investigated were encoded by product length. Time, cost, and routine performance were collated. Discrepant samples were investigated by sequencing. The association of new alleles with the phenotype was evaluated by a step-wise statistical analysis.
RESULTS: On validation using 312 samples, for 1.1% of antigens (in 5.4% of samples) no prediction was obtained. 99.96% of predictions were correct. Consumable cost per donor were below EUR 2.00. In routine use, 92.2% of samples were successfully predicted. Discrepancies were most frequently due to technical reasons. A total of 11 previously unknown alleles were detected in the Kell, Lutheran, and Colton blood group systems. In 2017, more than 20% of the RBC units prepared by our institution were from donors with predicted antigen status. A steady supply of Yt(a-), Co(a-) and Lu(b-) RBC units was ensured.
CONCLUSIONS: Pooled capillary electrophoresis offers a suitable alternative to other methods for extended donor DNA typing. Establishing a large cohort of typed donors improved transfusion support for patients.
