title: Genetic polymorphism of orosomucoid (ORM1 and ORM2) in Lombardy (Italy).
abstract: Orosomucoid subtypes have been analysed in 600 unrelated individuals from the Brescia Area (Lombardy-Italy) by the isoelectric focusing technique and immunoprinting. Five ORM1 phenotypes were observed. The ORM2 pattern was found to be virtually monomorphic, but one variant with an additional single band was found. The estimated allele frequencies were: ORM1*F1 = 0.5992, ORM1*F2 = 0.0150, ORM1*S = 0.3858.
