Abstract
A total of 960 individuals from four Iranian population samples (Tabriz, Tehran, Yazd, Mashhad) was typed for HP and for TF, GC and PI subtype polymorphism. Statistically significant intergroup heterogeneity in the distribution of allele frequencies was found only in the HP polymorphism. Comparisons with other Iranian populations suggest considerable ethnic differences with regard to the TF and GC subtype polymorphisms. Some rare alleles were observed in all four samples (Tabriz: GC*1C1; Tehran: PI*S: Yazd: PI*S; Mashhad: PI*Z).Keywords
