| Abstract: | Summary The newly described genetic polymorphism of glyoxalase I (GLO) is studied in seven ethnically defined Negroid samples from South Africa (total: n=843). The allele frequencies between the different Negroid samples studied vary only marginally. However, the allele frequency of GLO1 for the South African Negroid samples combined (i.e., p=0.259), is highly significantly lower than that for Caucasoid samples.Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Bonn-Bad GodesbergSupported by a research fellowship (1975/76) awarded by the Alexander-von-Humboldt-Stiftung, Bonn-Bad Godesberg |
