title: Gc subtypes determined by ultrathin-layer isoelectric focusing. Distribution in the Veneto population (Italy).
abstract: The distribution of Gc phenotypes in the population of Veneto was investigated by ultrathin-layer isoelectric focusing. In our sample (n = 732) the six common phenotypes, Gc 1S, 1F, 1S1F, 2, 2-1S, 2-1F and a further phenotype, GC 1S1C3, were observed and the following frequencies calculated: Gc 1S = 0.560792; GC 1F = 0.159153; Gc2 = 0.277323; Gc 1C3 = 0.002732. Our gene frequencies have been compared with those found in other populations.
