Abstract The molecular polymorphism and quantiative levels of serum vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) were ascertained in a group of preterm, full-term and hypocalcaemic full-term newborn infants. The serum concentration of DBP is not influenced by phenotype and increases with fetal age from the 32nd–33rd week of gestation until the 35th week of gestation. Neither different DBP allele distribution nor abnormal quantitative levels found among 29 hypocalcaemic full-term newborn infants.
