โœฆ Synopsis


English, Italian (including Sardinian), and Spanish populations from Europe and Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Punjabi, and other populations from the Indian subcontinent currently living either in Birmingham or in India were screened for electrophoretically detectable genetic variants of red cell glyoxalase I (GLO), and their frequencies were reported. All the western European populations investigated, including those reported, exhibited an incidence of close to 44% for the GLO1 gene. The frequency distribution of the GLO1 gene in various populations from the Indian subcontinent, in contrast, was found to range between 0.15 and 0.33. These observations suggest that the European populations in general are genetically more homogeneous than are the populations of the Indian subcontinent.

A new variant malate dehydrogenase is described, designated S-MDH ~nd to indicate its discovery in the Indian subcontinent pending full comparison with all other variants. It occurred during a survey of the incidence of variant S-MDH phenotypes in 4149 subjects in north-east England and 1494 subject
