β¦ Synopsis
The distribution of the human red cell phosphoglucomutase (PGM1) subtypes in samples from Japanese population (n--277) living in the Miyagi Prefecture, the northern part of Japan, was investigated by applying the thinlayer polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing. In our population sample all the ten common phenotypes were demonstrated, and the estimated allele frequencies for the genes PGM] +, PGMI-, PGM~ +, and PGM~-were 0.671,0.107, 0.161, and 0.061, respectively. Family studies (n = 40) indicated an autosomal codominant inheritance and confirmed the four alleles. The new system wilt increase the probability of exclusion in paternity cases among Japanese to 29.4% compared with 14.3% if the two allele system is used.

The technique of isoelectric focusing on methylated 'cellogel' strips (CAGIF) was used to confirm the presence of four alleles of PGM1 in human red cell lysates. The subtypes of PGM1 were determined in two Polish population samples, from Southwestern Poland (WrocΕaw region, n=321) and Southeastern P
The distribution of Gc phenotypes in the population of Veneto was investigated by ultrathin-layer isoelectric focusing. In our sample (n = 732) the six common phenotypes, GclS, 1F, 1S1F, 2, 2-1S, 2-1F and a further phenotype, Gc 1S1C3, were observed and the following frequencies calculated: G c l S
