IMMUNOGLOBULIN ALLOTYPES IN EUROPEAN POPULATIONS. IV. Gm, Am AND Km ALLOTYPIC MARKERS IN VALENCIA, SPAIN

Abstract
SUMMARY: The distribution of Glm(f, z, a and x), G3m(b0, b1, b3, b5, c3, c5, g, s and t), A2m (1 and 2) and Km(1) allotypic determinants in a series of Spanish blood donors. The following results were obtained: Gmz,a;gAm1= 0.199; Gmz,a;gAm2= 0.019; Gmz,a;bAm1= 0.081; Gmz,a,x;gAm2= 0.005; Gmf;bAm1= 0.677; Gmz,a;bAm1= 0.019 and Km1= 0.096. The results are similar to those reported for adjacent Basque and Portuguese populations. The origin of the Gmz,a;bAm1 haplotype is unknown.
