Our daughter was home on spring break from college and I decided to have her tested for the Mg Antigen and secretor status. Come to find out, she does have the rare Mg antigen, but she is MMg whereas I am NMg. Would this mean my husband has to be MM? Could he still be MN? Also, she is a secretor (Lewis a-b+) while I am a non-secretor. Does this mean that my husband has to be a secretor? I have yet to understand the heredity of blood types - sorry - didn't do very well in high school biology or chemistry either  One thing I do know is that we are a family of four happy O+. |

homozygous of M why not test your husband and eliminate your doubting?
I am homozygous of N |

Wouldn't my daughter be a heterozygote rather than a homozygote? She is M-Positive, Mg-Positive and N-Negative, since Mg is a an antigen in the MNS system?

Daughter is heterozygous having alleles M and Mg
Since her Mg allele came from her mother, she got the M allele from father.
Father could be homozygous MM or heterozygous MN |

C_sharp, how about the secretor status? Does this mean my husband has to be a secretor since I am a non secretor? |
