Abstract
The Land and Sea Dayaks of Sarawak [Malaysia] were surveyed for several erythrocyte enzymes. The gene frequency of 6PGDC [6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase] in 132 Land Dayaks and 127 Sea Dayaks were 0.045 and 0.047, respectively. The gene frequency of .**GRAPHIC**. [phosphoglucomutase] in 285 Land Dayaks and 240 Sea Dayaks were 0.716 and 0.779, respectively. The ADA2 [adenosine deaminase] gene frequency in 283 Land Dayaks and 188 Sea Dayaks were 0.154 and 0.090. ADA 5-1 was found once in the Land Dayaks and once in the Sea Dayaks. AK 2-1 [adenylate kinase] was found once in 221 Sea Dayaks but not in any of 270 Land Dayaks. No PHI [phosphohexase isomerase], LDH [lactate dehydrogenase] or CA [carbonic anhydrase] variants were found among the Land or Sea Dayaks.
