Glyoxalase I polymorphism in South African Bantu-speaking negroids
Human Genetics
|September 22, 1977
Abstract:
The newly described genetic polymorphism of glyoxalase I (GLO) is studied in seven ethnically defined Negroid samples from South Africa (total: n = 843). The allele frequencies between the different Negroid samples studied vary only marginally. However, the allele frequency of GLO1 for the South African Negroid samples combined (i.e., p = 0.259), is highly significantly lower than that for Caucasoid samples.
