F. Jin et al., GENETIC-POLYMORPHISM OF ADA IN TAIWAN ABORIGINAL POPULATIONS - NEW ADA VARIANTS DETECTED BY ISOELECTRIC-FOCUSING METHOD, Anthropological science, 103(3), 1995, pp. 227-234
ADA subtype polymorphism in nine aboriginal populations (Gaoshan) of T
aiwan was studied by means of the IEF method. A new ADA variant allele
, ADATaiwan1, was in a high allele frequency in two Gaoshan populatio
ns, the Amis and the Paiwans. Another new variant, ADATaiwan2, was fo
und in only one case of heterozygote in the Saisiats. Allele frequenci
es of a common allele, ADA2, in the Paiwans and the Amis were the hig
hest among the Asian populations so far studied.
