The restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of 3 collagen genes have been studied in two USSR populations. Four high-frequency alleles, also reported in other populations, were observed. The frequencies of alleles for the polymorphic sites MspI and EcoRI of the COL1A2 gene, HindIII of the COL2A1 gene and EcoRI of the COL3A1 gene were found to be 0.836, 0.398, 0.447 and 0.786, respectively, in Russians from Moscow (Caucasians), and 0.883, 0.519, 0.648 and 0.809, respectively, in Buryats from the Baikal region (Mongoloids). The RFLPs showed a fair agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The frequencies were compared with those of other populations.

D012150 Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length Variation occurring within a species in the presence or length of DNA fragment generated by a specific endonuclease at a specific site in the genome. Such variations are generated by mutations that create or abolish recognition sites for these enzymes or change the length of the fragment.
