Restriction endonuclease analyses of DNA from one Black G gamma A gamma-HPFH homozygote and four Black and one Indian G gamma A gamma-HPFH heterozygotes have identified three different HPFH types which are the result of large deletions including the delta and beta genes. Two of the types are comparable to those characterized previously, but the third, which is present in the Indian heterozygote, shows a distinct difference in the size of the deletion. The 5' end point of the deletion in this type III G gamma A gamma-HPFH extends 0.5-1.0 kb beyond the 5' end point of one of the Black types of HPFH (type I). Each of the three types is associated with a distinct ratio between the G gamma and the A gamma chains, an observation supported by family data. The highest ratio is found in the heterozygote with the Indian type III G gamma A gamma-HPFH, with 69.3% G gamma chains, while the averages for the other types were 50.7% G gamma (type I) and 32.3% G gamma (type II).
