Abstract

The polymorphism of the phosphoglucomutase (PGM) system was first demonstrated by starch gel electrophoretic studies conducted by Spencer et al [1] on the enzyme from the human red cell. Pedigree studies [2] have shown that two common autosomal alleles PGM¹¹ and PGM¹² situated on the same locus of chromosome 1 [3] are responsible for determining the three common phenotypes PGM¹ 1, PGM¹ 2, and PGM¹ 2–1 that are observed by starch gel electrophoresis.
