Abstract

7 human red cell enzyme polymophisms have been typed on a sample of n=138 unrelated adults from Bulgaria, which revealed the following gene frequencies: ADA<superscript>1</superscript>=0.8623. ADA<superscript>2</superscript>=0.1376; AK<superscript>1</superscript>=0.9637, AK<superscript>2</superscript>=0.0362; 6-PGD<superscript>A</superscript>=0.9891, 6-PGD<superscript>C</superscript>=0.0108; PGM<subscript>1</subscript><superscript>1</superscript>=0.8346, PGM<subscript>1</subscript><superscript>2</superscript>=0.1653; P<superscript>A</superscript>=0.1596, P<superscript>B</superscript>=0.7983, P<superscript>C</superscript>=0.0420. In the LDH-system one B-subunit variant was found, whilst no Peptidase A or B variant could be observed. The anthropological significance of these findings is discussed.
