Abstract
The distribution of the HP and GC serum protein polymorphisms in the !Kung San and Kavango (Bantu) populations in Namibia were examined. The obtained allele frequencies of GC marker system were very similar in both populations (GC*1F approximately equal to 0.80, GC*2 approximately equal to 0.10), while the distributions of the HP subtypes in the !Kung San sample (HP*1F = 0.0967, HP*1S = -.1452, HP*2FS = 0.7581) differed markedly from those in the Kavango one (HP*1F = 0.3791, HP*1S = 0.2375, HP*2S = 0.375). These results confirm previously reported allelic distributions in ethnically similar populations.
