Genetic evidence for four common alleles at the phosphoglucomutase-1 locus (PGM1) detectable by isoelectric focusing

The existence of 4 alleles of phosphoglucomutase (PGM1) in human red cell lysates has been demonstrated by isoelectric focusing confirming earlier work by Bark et al. and Kuhnl et al. A survey of 101 red cell lysates and the inheritance of these alleles in 24 families are now described.
