Abstract:
Electrophoretic analysis of the Ps protein demonstrated the existence of phenotypes additional to those described by Azen & Denniston (1980). A hypothesis that the polymorphism of the Ps protein is determined by five expressed and one unexpressed alleles was supported by family studies. The gene frequencies in a Japanese population were Ps1F = 0.0016, Ps1 = 0.2983, Ps2F = 0.0288, Ps2S = 0.0079, Ps3 = 0.0111, Ps0 = 0.6523.
