[Variability of polymorphic gene markers in Buryat and Russian newborns from Ulan-Ude]

Variability of ten polymorphic loci (ABO, RhD, PGD, ACP, PGM1, GLO, ESD, ADA, GC, TF) was studied in 326 Buryat and 310 Russian newborns from Ulan-Ude city. Marked differences between two groups were observed in the distributions of allelic frequencies of ABO, RhD, PGD, ACP, PGM1, GLO, ESD, GC loci. Genetic similarities between Buryat and other mongoloids were estimated. Close similarity was observed between Buryat, Mongols, Yakut and Kyzyl.
