Human Orosomucoid (ORM1) Subtyping: Further Population Genetic Data and Reports on the Feasibility to Type Aged Blood Samples and Stains

Abstract: Genetic polymorphism of serum orosomucoid (ORM1) was investigated in 1072 unrelated German Caucasians using isolectric focusing followed by Western blotting and EIA. The estimated allele frequencies were ORM1 *F1 = 0,5690, ORM1 *S = 0,3927, ORM1 *F2 = 0,0368, ORM1 *F2S = 0,0009 and ORM1 *F5 = 0,0005. The method was successfully applied to determine ORM1 phenotypes in aged blood samples and blood stains. The results indicated that the ORM protein is a informative and remarkably robust blood group system.

“…The relative frequencies of alpha-1 glycoprotein acid phenotypes found here are close to those previously described in healthy subjects or in HIV-infected patients (5,8). We did not find ORM1*F2 on this population, but this variant is present only at a low allelic frequency (9,19). As already described in healthy subjects, alpha-1 glycoprotein acid plasma concentrations were not found to differ between the 3 phenotypes (18).…”

“…In Method C, desialylated samples were alkylated with iodoacetamide and subjected to isoelectric focusing in the presence of 8M urea. The banding patterns were visualized by immunoprinting and immunoblotting (Yuasa et al 1993;Rocha et al 1993;Dülmer et al 1998). …”

“…ORM phenotyping was performed by three IEF techniques: IEF of desialyzed samples in the presence and absence of detergent (Yuasa et al 1993) and of alkylated samples in the presence of urea (Rocha et al 1993;Dülmer et al 1998). In some experiments a carrier ampholyte with a broad pH range of 3.5-9.5 (Pharmacia, Uppsala, Sweden) was also used.…”
