Summary Polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing followed by electroblotting with enzyme immunoassay was done for the investigation of allotypes of properdin factor B (BF) in serum from 326 Japanese subjects. A new BF F variant tentatively designated BF*Fb1 (b=basic) was detected, the isoelectric point of each band of homozygous BF Fb1 being higher than of BF FF. Family data were in accordance with transmission by mendelian inheritance. The allele frequencies calculated from 326 Japanese subjects were 0.7945, 0.1825, 0.0215, and 0.0015 for BF*S, BF*F, BF*Fb1, and BF*F075, respectively, with that of variant BF*Fb1 being a polymorphic frequency. The distribution of phenotypes fitted the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
