Improved technique for electrophoresis of human galactose-1-p uridyl transferase (EC 2.7.7.12)

A newly developed electrophoretic technique for human galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase confirms the multiple band patterns for the Duarte and Los Angeles variants. This represents the first confirmation for the Los Angeles variant. The observed frequencies of N, D, and LA types are similar to earlier reports for these variants.
