The Blood group antigen Gene MUTation (BGMUT) database documents variations in genes of human blood group systems. In March 2014, the database, accessible at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gv/mhc/xslcgi.cgi?cmd=bgmut, listed 1,545 alleles of 44 genes of 34 blood group systems. Besides allelic information, the BGMUT resource also presents comprehensive and current information on blood group systems. This review describes the database and notes its utility for the transfusion medicine and human genetics communities.
