Summary

In a population sample from southwestern Germany the frequency of UMPK1 was estimated to be 0.949. The segregation of the children's phenotypes is in agreement with the formal model: 2 common alleles UMPK1 and UMPK2 at an autosomal locus. Data on linkage relations are referred.

Zusammenfassung

Die Genhäufigkeit für UMPK1 in einer südwestdeutschen Stichprobe beträgt 0.949. Die Analyse von Familien bestätigt das formalgenetische Modell: 2 häufige Allele UMPK1 und UMPK2 an einem autosomalen Locus. Ergebnisse einer Kopplungsanalyse werden mitgeteilt.
