Phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) variants in the Netherlands

Six hundred individuals of pure Dutch ancestry have been typed for their erythrocyte phosphoglucose isomerase phenotypes by starch gel and cellulose acetate electrophoresis. In two individuals a variant phenotype was discovered. One phenotype was found to be indistinguishable from PGI-Phillips. The...

Summary:Six hundred individuals of pure Dutch ancestry have been typed for their erythrocyte phosphoglucose isomerase phenotypes by starch gel and cellulose acetate electrophoresis. In two individuals a variant phenotype was discovered. One phenotype was found to be indistinguishable from PGI-Phillips. The other variant would appear to be a new phenotype and has been designated PGI-Jager.
