Aim To compare A allele frequencies of the 845G>A mutation of 10 Slavic populations in central, eastern, and southern Europe between each other and with other European populations. Methods The 845G>A mutation from the DNA of 400 Polish neonates collected in 2005-2006 was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The data were compared with reports from other countries. Results We identified 381 GG homozygotes, 18 GA heterozygotes, and 1 AA homozygote. The 845A allele frequency was 2.5%, which makes the summary figure for Poland from this and previous studies 3.5%. The average prevalence for Poland and other West Slavic countries was 3.6%, similar to Russia (inhabited by the East Slavs, 3.5%). The average prevalence in South Slavic countries was 2.2%, gradually decreasing from 3.6% in Slovenia to 0% in Bulgaria, with a longitudinal linear gradient (adjusted R-2 = 0.976, P < 0.001). Conclusions The West and East Slavs, together with Finland, Estonia, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, and Croatia, form a group with 845A allele frequencies between 3% and 4%. In the South Slavs, there is a gradual decline in the prevalence of 845A allele from northwest to southeast, with a surprisingly exact east-west linear gradient.
