Pseudocholinesterases and human red cell acid phosphatases in Koreans.

1969

The authors reveal the results of pseudocholinesterase and human red cell acid phosphatase typings in a sample of 115 unrelated female Koreans aged from 20–30. No atypical pseudocholinesterase variants could be demonstrated. The frequencies of human red cell acid phosphatase alleles run up to: phA=0.231, phB=0.769, phC=0.000.

Some notes on the geographical distribution of the human red cell acid phosphatase phenotypes

1972

Basing on the data of 65 populations the geographical variability of the human red cell acid phosphatase phenotypes resp. alleles was studied. We found a marked distribution gradient: The frequency of pB-alleles increases with the increase of the mean annual temperature of the various biotops, whereas the pA-allele frequencies show a clear decrease. For this allele we calculated a significant negative correlation between its frequency and the mean annual temperature: r=-0.71; P<0.001. We suppose that the pB-allele is in some way adaptive under the climatic conditions of tropical biotops. The possible reasons are discussed.
