Abstract
- The C3, BF, C4A and C4B polymorphisms were studied in a Tunisian population sample. The allelic frequencies for C3 were S = 0.844 and F = 0.148, and for BF, S = 0.535, F = 0.331, SO7 = 0.075 and F1 = 0.041. The most frequent C4 alleles were A3 and B1 followed in a decreasing order by A2, B2 and the A and B null alleles. The results indicate that the Tunisian population is intermediate between the Caucasian and Arab populations with some trace admixture of African Blacks.
