Abstract
The S-formylglutathione hydrolase (FGH) polymorphism of human red blood cells was studied in unrelated individuals, both by isoelectric focusing and starch gel electrophoresis, and with the substrates S-acetylglutathione and 4-methylumbelliferyl-acetate (the standard substrate for esterase D (ESD]. With both separation techniques the two substrates consistently gave similar and identically located zymograms. Thus, FGH (E.C.3.1.2.12) appears to be identical to ESD (E.C.3.1.1.1).
