Abstract excerpt
The polymorphism of complement component C3, BF and C4 was studied in an urban population of Bogota, Colombia and for C3 and BF, genetic heterogeneity was further examined among the five villages of the Colombian Andes. For both C3 and BF systems there is considerable variation of allele frequenc...
