ABSTRACT
This investigation presents the results of Hp and Tf subtyping of sera from 307 Australian whites by means of isoelectric focusing. Five Hp alleles were detected, these being Hp1F = 0.168, Hp1S = 0.235, Hp2FF = 0.003, Hp2FS = 0.561 and Hp2SS = 0.033. In the Tf system six alleles were found, TfC1 = 0.761, TfC2 = 0.176, TfC3 = 0.054, TfC6 = 0.002, TfB = 0.006 and TfD = 0.002. The usefulness of IEF together with modifications was highlighted for differentiating Tf and Hp subtypes; in particular, the absence of Hp2FF and Hp2SS in some earlier studies could be related to the technique used. The implication of the simultaneous presence of B and D transferrin variants in Caucasian populations is discussed.
