Abstract

Serum samples from 40 Danish patients with familial polyposis coli and 105 normal blood donors were typed for eight Gm and one Km markers. The distribution of all Gm phenotypes as a group was significantly different in the patient population as compared to the controls. Examination of individual Gm phenotypes showed an increased frequency of Gm3;5,13 in the patients.
