PGM-I Enzyme 1-1 type is characterized by :

  • A.a and b bands
  • B.a and c bands
  • C.a and d bands
  • D.a, b, c and d bands

Answer: B

The PGM-1 type 1-1 is characterised by a and c bands.

Phosphoglucomutase (PGM-1) is a polymorphic enzyme used in older forensic blood and semen typing. On electrophoresis, the PGM-1 type 1 shows the a and c bands, type 2 shows the b and d bands, and the heterozygote 2-1 shows all four bands, a, b, c and d.

The 'a and b' and 'a and d' combinations do not match any standard phenotype, and 'a, b, c and d' is the 2-1 type.
