Summary

630 individuals and 102 mother/child pairs from the Veneto provinces were examined for their red cell EsD by Cellogel electrophoresis. Compared with the horizontal starch-gel electrophoresis no differences in the zymogram patterns have been found.

The gene frequencies observed (EsD1=0.8556; EsD2=0.1444) differ only slightly from those reported for various European populations and are nearly identical with data for other Italian populations.

Family studies confirmed the Mendelian co-dominant inheritance.

Zusammenfassung

630 Einzelpersonen sowie 102 Mutter/Kind-Paare aus den Veneto Provinzen wurden zur Bestimmung ihrer Erythrocyten EsD mittels Cellogel-Elektrophorese untersucht. Im Vergleich zur horizontalen Stärkgel-Elektrophorese wurden bei den Zymogramm-Mustern keine Unterschiede entdeckt. Die beobachteten Genfrequenzen (EsD1=0,8556; EsD2=0,1444) unterscheiden sich nur geringfügig von den anderer europäischer Bevölkerungsgruppen und sind beinahe identisch mit Daten über andere italienische Bevölkerungsgruppen.

Familienstudien bestätigten die mendelische co-dominante Vererbung.
