A family is described in which an apparent A(y) phenotype was transmitted through 2 generations. We
favor a mutation of the A allele as the most likely cause of the phenotype. Activities of the serum A-gene-specified
transferase were not detected in any of the 3 family members with the A(y) phenotypes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
