The association between glyoxalase I and paracoccidioidomycosis infection

With the purpose to study the genetic susceptibility to paracoccidioidomycosis infection we searched for a possible association between glyoxalase I and the intradermic paracoccidioidin reaction. The phenotype GLO 1 was significantly more frequent among positive reactors.
