Red cell esterase-d-polymorphism in the Veneto population.
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 reorted for various European populations and are nearly identical with data for other Italian populations. Family studies confirmed the Mendelian co-dominant inheritance.
