title: Genetic polymorphism of alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein: four new alleles and allele frequencies in Japanese.
abstract: alpha 2-HS-glycoprotein (AHSG) phenotyping was done in 655 Japanese from the Goto Islands, western Japan, using isoelectric focusing followed by immunoblotting. Four new AHSG alleles were encountered, AHSG*G1-G4, whose genetic transmissions were established in family studies. The allele frequencies were: AHSG*1 = 0.7221; AHSG*2 = 0.2748, and AHSG*G1-G4 = 0.0008, respectively.
