We surveyed three major ethnic groups in Malaysia for red cell glyoxalase I polymorphism. The allelic frequencies forGLO1 were: Malays, 0.196; Chinese, 0.200; and Indians, 0.287. No rare variant was seen. By means of gel electrophoresis of placenta samples, theACON2s allele was found to be polymorph...
