1.14.18.2 malfunction by inactivating enzyme CMAH, the NeuAc precursor accumulates and NeuGc is absent on the erythrocyte cell surface, thus reducing parasite infection in humans and promoting a positive selection during evolution, which results in the enrichment of resistant blood type antigens Felis catus
1.14.18.2 physiological function cytidine monophospho-N-acetylneuraminic acid hydroxylase (CMAH) is associated with the production of the sialic acids present on cat erythrocytes. CMAH converts N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) to N-glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc) by substituting one of the hydrogen atoms in the methyl moiety with a carboxyl group. A genetic variant of enzyme CMAH is associated with blood type AB in Ragdoll cats Felis catus
