Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. It is one of the minor blood group. It is called as Yt antigen system or cartwright system.
2. If this antibody is present, it can agglutinate majority of other donor cells.
3. Yes, you can store it for future purpose and I would advise you to do it.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
