    Abstract:
    Genetic polymorphisms of plasma alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (oro-somucoid, ORM), alpha 2-HS-glycoprotein (A2HS) and alpha 1-B-glycoprotein (alpha 1B) were studied in a group of Parsis in Bombay, India. The frequencies of ORM1*1, ORM1*2 and ORM1*3 were found to be 0.636, 0.356 and 0.008, respectively. A2HS*1, A2HS*2 and A2HS*3 frequencies were 0.855, 0.135 and 0.010, while the frequencies of A1B*1 and A1B*2 were 0.881 and 0.119, respectively. The phenotype distribution at all three loci was at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The ORM2 locus was monomorphic in the Parsis.
