The Distribution in Man of Genetic Variants of 6-Phosphogluconate Dehydrogenase

For the enzyme 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, a table is given of all available data on the distribution of isozyme phenotypes. The calculated frequencies of all but the commonest gene are also tabulated. The frequencies of the PGDC allele are plotted on a world map. Possible interpretations of t...

Description
Summary:For the enzyme 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, a table is given of all available data on the distribution of isozyme phenotypes. The calculated frequencies of all but the commonest gene are also tabulated. The frequencies of the PGDC allele are plotted on a world map. Possible interpretations of the observations are discussed.
