Abstract

Phenotypes of glyoxalase I (GLO) were determined in 1220 unrelated adults from all parts of Denmark giving the gene frequencies GLO1 = 0.4311 and GLO2 = 0.5689. The segregation of phenotypes in 59 families and in 455 mother-child pairs was consistent with the assumed autosomal codominant inheritance. The results of an investigation of 379 parternity cases with respect to exclusions of non-fathers by means of the GLO system are reported, and the application of the GLO system to paternity cases is discussed.
