Further Data on the Incidence and Segregation of Genetically Determined Electrophoretic Variants of Human Red Cell NADH Diaphorase

Abstract

Human red cell NADH diaphorase isozyme patterns have been examined in 3,060 unrelated Australians of European origin, by starch gel electrophoresis. 26 people with variant isozyme patterns were encountered: 12 were phenotype Dia 2–1 and 13 were Dia 4–1. A new variant isozyme pattern (Dia 7–1) was identified. No variants were identified in 100 Melanesians and 70 Australian Aborigines.
