The esterase D polymorphism by ultrathin layer isoelectric-focusing: frequency of the EsD5 allele in the population of Rome.
The distribution of EsD phenotypes in the population of Rome was investigated by cellulose-acetate electrophoresis and isoelectric-focusing. The gene frequencies were found to be: EsD1 = 0.8451, EsD2 = 0.1363, EsD5 = 0.0186. These frequencies were compared with those reported in other populations.
