Alpha-1B-glycoprotein is present in normal adult plasma at an average concentration of 22 mg/dl. Gahne et al. (1987) observed genetic polymorphism of A1B using one-dimensional horizontal polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by Western blotting with specific antiserum. Three different phenotypes, designated 1-1, 1-2, and 2-2, were observed. Family data supported the hypothesis that the three phenotypes are determined by 2 codominant alleles at an autosomal locus.
In pigs the homologous locus is linked to malignant hyperthermia. Several other linkages in pigs and in horses suggest that human chromosomes 19, 6, and 1 are 'candidate chromosomes' for bearing the human A1B.
