Abstract
A survey of Guaymi Indians of Panama for the occurrence of genetic variants of 25 proteins of the erythrocytes and sera have revealed, in addition to 7 well-known genetic polymorphisms, 4 rare variants and 2 private polymorphisms, the latter involving erythrocyte acid phosphatase and lactate dehydrogenase. The significance of such private polymorphisms in tribal populations to the interpretation of rare variants in civilized populations is emphasized.This publication has 24 references indexed in Scilit:
