Red cell glutamate-pyruvate transaminase gene frequencies in Gambia, West Africa.
The red cell GPT phenotypes have been determined in two village populations in Gambia, West Africa. A total of 887 people have been investigated. The results confirm the previous observations that the frequency of the GPT gene is far higher in African populations than Caucasian populations.
