(1) It appears that the lack of HBB*E in the Austro-Asiatic (Khasi) and Naga-Kuki-Chin groups is probably due to the absence of malarial selection pressure as well as to isolation from their neighbors.
(2) Escherichia coli strain KF148(SD-) defective in translation of the uncC gene for the epsilon subunit of H(+)-ATPase could not support growth by oxidative phosphorylation due to lack of F1 binding to Fo (M. Kuki, T. Noumi, M. Maeda, A. Amemura, and M. Futai, 1988, J. Biol.
Mongoloid
Definition:
(a.) Resembling a Mongol or the Mongols; having race characteristics, such as color, hair, and features, like those of the Mongols.
Example Sentences:
(1) Epicanthal folds were present in 46%, mongoloid slanting of the lids in 72% of cases.
(2) The percentages of two-locus haplotypes in LD shared with other populations turned out to be 45% with caucasoids, 20% with negroids and 10% with mongoloids.
(3) An application of this method is presented to find clusters of 31 Mongoloid tribal populations of eastern India using ABO gene frequency data.
(4) Thus, the population frequency of attached is 25.37%, a value within the range for Caucasoids but lower than for Mongoloids.
(5) This observation can be expressed numerically by the "labial index", which in mongoloids was found significantly lower.
(6) Haptoglobin polymorphism has been studied in 148 Ladakhis -- a Mongoloid population inhabiting the northern-most region of India.
(7) Frequency of missing one or more third molars was less than expected and not as high as reported in peoples of Mongoloid heritage.
(8) Plasma total cholesterol in the mongoloids did not differ significantly from that of the control group, but it was low in both groups in comparison with the Finnish population in general.
(9) An abnormal ALDH isozyme has been found to be widely prevalent among individuals of Mongoloid race, and is mainly responsible for the acute sensitivity to alcohol commonly observed in this race.
(10) The frequency of the C2 gene varied between 10.4% in Pamirians and 27.4% in Koreans and was generally higher in populations of Mongoloid origin.

(13) It is claimed that separation of the negroid branch preceded the divergence of europeoids and mongoloids.
(14) The first-order Gaussian distribution may reflect the degree of inteneuronal coupling; since an increased number of connections on any neuron implies decreased functional dependence of that neuron on any other particular single neuron, the present evidence, which indicates stronger interneuronal coupling in mongoloids, suggests that Down's syndrome may be associated with incomplete postnatal development of interconnections between cortical neurons.
(15) An attempt has been made to use the rapid surface fixation method for the investigation of immunological reactions in mixtures of sera from mothers and their mongoloid children.

(20) The GMpatterm of the Negritos is characterized by three haplotypes, Gm1,17;21, Gm1,2,17;21, and Gm1,3;5,11,13,14, which is also characteristic of Mongoloid-related populations, especially with high incidence of the latter haplotype.
