Implication

Research investigates ALDH2 gene polymorphism frequencies in Dayak, Javanese, Minahasan, and Papuan populations, suggesting genetic diversity and ethnic variations.

Key Points

The study finds that the rs671 polymorphism is very rarely found among Indonesian ethnic groups.
In the Minahasan ethnic group, genotypic frequencies of typical homozygous, heterozygous, and atypical homozygous are 97.8%, 2.2%, and 0%, respectively.
All individuals in the Dayak, Javanese, and Papuan groups are typical homozygotes, showing no presence of the ALDH2*2 allele.
The findings align with patterns of gene distribution seen in East and Southeast Asia, indicating unique genetic traits.
