An appraisal of the best known erythrocytic genetic adaptations of man to malaria and its implications
MtDNA provides the first known marker distinguishing proto-Indians from the other Caucasoids; it probably predates the diversification between Indians and Orientals
The concomitant presence of the two sites Ddel at 10,394 and Alul at 10,397 has been considered an East-Asian marker of ancient origin (it was also observed in Australians, Melanesians and Native Americans). Unexpectedly, it was found in more than 50% of Indians (133 Hindus and 30 Tribals) who had shown Caucasoid characteristics not only at nuclear DNA but also at mtDNA level. It can therefore no longer be considered an exclusively East-Asian mtD…
Population and pharmacogenetic studies on serum cholinesterase (E): Estimates of theE 1 andE 2 allele frequencies for the population of Central Italy, and of the correlation between E activity and sen…
392 random patients treated with SCC prior to surgery were assayed for pseudocholinesterase activity and electrophoretic pattern. The estimate of the percent frequencies of theE 1 a allele were 1.16±0.38 and of the C5 (+) phenotype 9.7±1.5, both typical of Caucasian populations. By combining the presentE 1 a gene frequency estimate with that from another sample of the same population (Cermele et al., 1987) a better estimate with smaller confidenc…

Taste sensitivity to phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) and endemic goiter in the Indian natives of Peruvian highlands
In 263 Peruvian Indians, natives and residents of Andean villages in the Department of Pasco, where goiter is endemic, very low frequencies of PTC non‐tasters were found in agreement with other data on South America Indians. The data suggest that in this population the risk of developing goiter either is not associated with the tasting non‐tasting dimorphism, or is greater in the taster class
