Abstract:
12 population groups of Hungary, 1514 individuals altogether, have been studied for polymorphisms of alpha 1antitrypsin, serum cholinesterase, paraoxonase and delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydrase, N-acetyltransferase variation and aldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency. A possible relationship between their allele frequencies and environmental factors in the context of ecogenetic and pharmacogenetic phenomena in Hungary is discussed.
