  • 摘要:Plasma samples exhibiting alloalbuminemia on electrophoresis at pH 8.6 were requested from clinical laboratories throughout Sweden. Nine variants, each representing a different single point mutation, were found in 100 apparently unrelated Swedes. The overall prevalence of alloalbuminemia was estimated at 1:1700. Mutations were identified by protein-structural analysis followed by allele-specific DNA hybridization to verify the most common types. Slightly retarded (+1) mobility was seen in 80 cases. Of these, 71 had the Arg(-2)----Cys proalbumin variant previously called Malmo I proalbumin. Thirteen examples of the second most frequent type, the substitution Lys313----Asn and a mobility change of -1 charge unit, were found, as well as six cases of Glu570----Lys (albumin B) and a single case of Arg-1----Gln (proalbumin Christchurch). Five previously unreported types of alloalbuminemia were identified: four instances of Glu376----Gln, which is the second known mutation at this site; two examples of Asp550----Ala, the second mutation reported at this site; and one example each of Asp63----Asn, Gln268----Arg, and Asn318----Lys. Other mutations were identified among eight subjects of foreign descent. The high frequency and relatively uniform geographic distribution of the Arg-2----Cys mutation suggest that it may have occurred in a founder individual many generation ago in Sweden.
