[Frequency distribution of HLA-antigens, genes and haplotypes in the migrant population of Magadan as a function of length of residence in the region].

Peculiarities of the frequency distribution of antigens, genes, and haplotypes at subloci A, B, and Cw of the HLA system in 1429 Slavic inhabitants of Magadan are presented in dependence on length of residence in extreme conditions. No significant differences were revealed with respect to frequency of genes and antigens in inhabitants with different lengths of residence in northeastern Russian conditions. Analysis of gamete associations shows that the revealed positive or negative associativity in some cases is characteristic for Caucasoids on the whole, but an associativity specific to inhabitants of Magadan was also established. Its character depends on the length of residence in extreme conditions.
