Summary
PGP (phosphoglycolate phosphatase, EC 3.1.3.18.) genetic studies were performed in 188 families including a total of 415 offspring in the Galician population. The results are in agreement with the formal hypothesis of three codominant alleles at an autosomal locus. No silent alleles have been observed.
Zusammenfassung
Genetische Studien der PGP (Phosphoglykolat-Phosphatase EC 3.1.3.18.) wurden an 188 Familien der Bevölkerung Galiziens durchgeführt, welche eine Gesamtzahl von 415 Kindern aufwiesen. Die Resultate stehen im Einklang mit der Hypothese der Existenz dreier Allele an einem autosomalen Locus.
