Popis: The restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of 3 collagen genes have been studied in two USSR populations. Four high-frequency alleles, also reported in other populations, were observed. The frequencies of alleles for the polymorphic sites MspI and EcoRI of the COL1A2 gene, HindIII of the COL2A1 gene and EcoRI of the COL3A1 gene were found to be 0.836, 0.398, 0.447 and 0.786, respectively, in Russians from Moscow (Caucasians), and 0.883, 0.519, 0.648 and 0.809, respectively, in Buryats from the Baikal region (Mongoloids). The RFLPs showed a fair agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The frequencies were compared with those of other populations.
