Popis: The quantitative expression of three allotypes--G1m(1), G3m(5) and G3m(21)--has been studied in normal caucasoid sera. A gene dosage effect, previously described for all of these allotypes, is not noticed for G3m(5) in the present study. The different content of G3m(5) and G3m(21) IgG3 molecules in heterozygous Gm5/Gm21 sera has been verified: these contents are respectively 75% and 25% of the IgG3 content. The same allotypes have been studied in a family which shows the inheritance of a weak Gm1,17;21 haplotype. The gene responsible for this abnormality is probably a new regulatory gene, and is transmitted without the 'aimed' haplotype.
