The alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) variant ADH-FCh.D. has a secondary alcohol/primary alcohol activity ratio characteristic of ADH-S although it has an electrophoretic mobility inseparable from ADH-F. ADH-FCh.D. is distinguished from these two common ADH variants by being much more thermostable. Genetic analysis suggests tht ADH-FCh.D. is specified by an allele at the Adh locus. Biochemical comparisons show that ADH-FCh.D. has the same electrophoretic mobility, activity ratio and thermostability as the two other heat-resistant variants which have been reported, ADH-F71K in Europe and ADH-Fr in North America. The geographically widespread distribution of a thermostable ADH variant within the ADH-F electrophoretic class indicates that it should be considered in attempts to explain the Adh polymorphism in natural populations.
