Table 2. GSTM1 and GSTP1 genotypes and minor allele frequencies in the study population.
Genetic variant | Homozygous for major allele N (%) |
Heterozygous N (%) |
---|---|---|
GSTM1null * | 73 (52.9) | - |
GSTP1 313A>G | 52 (37.7) | 69 (50) |
GSTP1 341C>T | 117 (84.8) | 18 (13) |
Abbreviations: GSTM1: glutathione S transferase Mu1; GSTM1 null- homozygous individuals for deletion; GSTP1: glutathione S transferase Pi1. *Distinction cannot be made between GSTM1 non-null heterozygous and homozygous individuals by the method used in the study, therefore observed frequencies could not be provided. GSTM1 null individuals are considered as homozygous for major allele.
