Abstract excerpt
Anonymous population screening was carried out to detect the N314D, Los Angeles (D1), and Duarte (D2) alleles of the galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase gene in Ireland using 743 blood samples, covering the Traveller (n = 243) and non-Traveller (n = 500) population groups. The frequency of the N314D substitution was found to be 0.099 overall. D1 allele frequencies were found to be 0.031 and 0.023 in the...
