Frequencies of the GPXT1 (or GPX*21) and CA2II Alleles in Some Congo Populations

Abstract
Genetic polymorphism of red cell enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPX1) and carbonic anhydrase (CAII) was investigated in four Congo populations (Beti Bantus, North Bateke and South Bateke Bantus and Babenga Pygmies). All show a polymorphic frequency of the GPX1T and CAII2 alleles, though with a certain variability of values.
