Abstract
A variant of red cell glutathione reductase, characterized by greater electrophoretic mobility, increased enzyme activity per unit of hemoglobin, and an autosomal mode of inheritance, has been found in Negro populations. There appears to be an association of this variant with primary gout.Keywords
