    The rare C7*2 allele, uncommon in Europeans, is prevalent in Chinese populations. This genetic marker offers potential for anthropological research and population studies.

    Area of Science:

    • Genetics
    • Immunology
    • Anthropology

    Background:

    • The seventh complement component (C7) is a crucial part of the human immune system.
    • Genetic variations in complement components can influence population diversity and disease susceptibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the frequency and distribution of the C7*2 allele in Chinese populations.
    • To assess the potential utility of the C7*2 allele as a genetic marker in anthropological studies.

    Main Methods:

    • Population genetics analysis.
    • Allele frequency determination.

    Main Results:

    • The C7*2 allele, rare in Europeans, was found at a balanced polymorphic frequency of 0.15 in the studied Chinese population.

  • This finding indicates significant genetic differentiation in C7 allele distribution between European and Chinese populations.
  • Conclusions:

    • The C7*2 allele represents a valuable genetic marker for anthropological studies, particularly for understanding population history and migration patterns.
    • Further research is warranted to explore the functional implications and broader geographical distribution of this allele.
