Gc Opava: a Variant of the Group‐Specific Component (Gc) System with an Electrophoretic Mobility Intermediate between Gc 1–1 and Gc 2–2¹

Abstract

A family from Opava, Czechoslovakia, with a Gc variant is described. The variant has an electrophoretic mobility between Gc 1-1 and Gc 2-2. The notation Gc Opava (Gc Op) is proposed. The variant appears to be determined by an allele at the Gc locus, Gcop. Three family members had the phenotype Gc Op-I; three family members had the phenotype Gc Op-2.
