Table 2. Genotype distribution and allelic frequencies of p53 intron 3 16-bp duplication polymorphism in control subjects and POAG patients
Genotype Allele frequency ---------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- Test Total number Total number Group Del/Del Ins/Del Ins/Ins of individuals Del Ins of chromosomes ------- ----------- ----------- ------- -------------- ----------- ---------- -------------- POAG 56 (83.58%) 11 (16.42%) 0 67 (100%) 0.918 (123) 0.082 (11) 134 Control 67 (67.00%) 33 (33.00%) 0 100 (100%) 0.835 (167) 0.165 (33) 200 |
The genotype distribution of POAG patients were not significantly different from controls (χ2=5.66, degrees of freedom=2, p=0.0590), but there was a difference in the allelic distributions (χ2=4.81, degrees of freedom=1, p=0.0283). The smaller number of individuals/chromosomes for control samples compared to Table 1 is due to repeated failure of PCR done for amplification of 16 bp duplication polymorphism for a few samples.
