title: Rare phenotypes of the phosphoglucomutase locus 1 detectable by isoelectric focusing on Cellogel.
abstract: The rare phenotypes PGM1, determined by alleles PGM1(3), PGM1(4), PGM1(6), and PGM1(7) were examined by starch gel electrophoresis and cellulose acetate gel isoelectric focusing and were compared with the commonest phenotypes of PGM1. The frequencies of the rare genes found in the Polish populations were as follows: in Lublin, PGM1(3) = 0.0002, PGM1(4) = 0.0005, PGM1(6) = 0.0010, and PGM1(7) = 0.0005; in Wrocław, PGM1(3) = 0.0000, PGM1(4) = 0.0005, PGM1(6) = 0.0007, and PGM1(7) = 0.0002. The results suggest that the F and S type variants of the genes PGM1(4) and PGM1(7) probably do not occur. It is still possible that F and S variants exist for the genes PGM1(3) and PGM1(6).
