NOTE.—Four haplotypes were seen for K113 of which two were common in African Americans and Hispanics. Both African Americans and Hispanics also had one unique private allele for K113. Caucasians had only one haplotype. Five different haplotypes were also observed in K115. The most diverse ethnic group with all five haplotypes was African American. African Americans also had two private alleles. Hispanics had two different haplotypes of K115, whereas the Caucasians had only a single haplotype.
