Genetic Polymorphism of α2HS-Glycoprotein in a French Population

Abstract
A French population was investigated for genetic polymorphism of α2HS-glycoprotein (A2HS; nomenclature according to Human Gene Mapping 7, Los Angeles, 1983) using isoelectric focusing and immunoblotting. Three variants were observed together with two common alleles A2HS*1 and A2HS*2, whose frequencies were significantly different from the data in Canadians and Egyptians. An anodal variant to A2HS 1 was identical to a variant with two different nomenclatures reported by three different groups, indicating that there is a confusion in the A2HS nomenclature. The others were new variants with cathodal isoelectric points to A2HS 2 in the native state.
