1444 persons of British nationality living in London, and 294 Caucasians, 258 Negroes, 310 Hispanic persons, and 151 Chinese persons living in New York were tested for glutamate-pyruvate transaminase phenotype. The Gpt1 frequency in the British population was found to be 0.5277, the Gpt2 frequency was 0.4716, and two GPT 3-2 persons were found. The Gpt1 frequencies in the New York population were: 0.4834 in Chinese; 0.5226 in Hispanic persons; 0.8101 in Negroes; and 0.5306 in Caucasians. Two Caucasians possessed the GPT 3-2 phenotype.
