Identification of the amino acid mutations associated with human erythrocyte spectrin alpha II domain polymorphisms.

Abstract excerpt

Four distinct spectrin alpha II domain polymorphisms are known to occur in several nonwhite populations. Type 1 is essentially the only form found in whites and is also the most common form in nonwhites. In contrast to most other spectrin mutations that are single-base substitutions, two of the alpha II domain polymorphisms, types 2 and 3, are particularly unusual because they appear to involve 4-Kd insertions...
