Uridine-5-monophosphate-kinase was determined by starch gel electrophoresis on samples of 711 unrelated individuals. The following gene frequencies were observed: UMPK1 = 0.9550 and UMPK2 = 0.0450.

✦ Synopsis
In a population sample from southwestern Germany the frequency of UMPK1 was estimated to be 0.949. The segregation of the children's phenotypes is in agreement with the formal model: 2 common alleles UMPK1 and UMPK2 at an autosomal locus. Data on linkage relations are referred.

Samples from 635 unrelated Japanese blood doners in Tokyo were examined for their red cell uridine monophosphate kinase phenotypes using starch gel electrophoresis. Three phenotypes were found: UMPK1 (570, 89.76%), UMPK 2--1 (63, 9.92%) and UMPK 2 (2, 0.32%). The corresponding gene frequency for UMP
