ABO blood group system gives type O. As both "I" and "I" are dominant over "i", only "ii" people have type O blood. Individuals with "II" or "Ii" have type A blood, and individuals with "II" or "Ii" have type B. "II" people have both phenotypes, because A and B express a special dominance relationship: codominance, which means that type A and B parents can have an AB child. A couple with type A and type B can also have a type O child if they are both heterozygous ("Ii","Ii"). The "cis-AB" phenotype has a single enzyme that creates both A and B antigens.
ABO blood group system in blood type distribution within human subpopulations. In the UK, the distribution of blood type frequencies through the population still shows some correlation to the distribution of placenames and to the successive invasions and migrations including Norsemen, Danes, Saxons, Celts, and Normans who contributed the morphemes to the placenames and the genes to the population. The two common O alleles, O01 and O02, share their first 261 nucleotides with the group A allele A01. However, unlike the group A allele, a guanosine base is subsequently deleted. A premature stop codon results from this frame-shift mutation. This variant is found worldwide,
