Summary

Gc subtypes were determined by immunofixation isoelectric focusing. In a family study involving 93 families with a total of 176 children, a three-allele model with six genotypes was confirmed. The distribution of Gc subtypes was studied in three populations from Europe and in a sample of Druzes from Northern Israel. Three new variant Gc types were observed.
