  • Title: Properdin factor B polymorphism in continental Italy and Sardinia.
    Author: Malavasi F, Olivetti E, Milanese C, Carbonara AO.
    Journal: Hum Genet; 1981; 58(2):209-12. PubMed ID: 6912819.
    Abstract:
    A sample of healthy unrelated individuals (882 from Continental Italy and Sicily, and 139 from Sardinia) were typed for HLA and Bf polymorphisms. Bf gene frequencies in Continental Italy and Sicily show an intermediate position among European populations, with Lapps on one side and Basques on the other side; while a very peculiar pattern is observed among Sardinians, with an impressive similarity with French Basques and with the highest F1 gene frequency so far observed. The HLA:Bf gametic associations in Italy and Sardinia are also reported, which confirm the different ethnic background of these populations.
