The Relationship

Abstract In 424 African-American and 75 white subjects, we found that the −5 (TPI 592 A→G), −8 (TPI 589 G→A), and −24 (TPI 573 T→G) variants in the triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) gene occurred frequently (41.0%) in the African-American subjects but did not occur in the whites. These data suggest that this set of polymorphisms may turn out to be one of the higher-incidence molecular markers of African lineage, a surprising finding because others had reported that these nucleotide substitutions were restricted to a small subset of African Americans who had been characterized as TPI-deficiency heterozygotes. Additionally, we investigated the relationship of these variants to TPI-enzyme activity. Although the variant substitutions (occurring in three haplotypes: −5 alone, −5 −8, and −5 −8 −24) were associated with moderate reduction in enzyme activity, severe-deficiency heterozygotes could not be identified with certainty, and none of the haplotypes were restricted to subjects with marked reduction of enzyme activity. Three subjects were homozygous for the −5 −8 haplotype, a finding inconsistent with the putative role of this haplotype as the cause of a null variant incompatible with life in homozygotes. Despite these findings, the possibility remains that the −5 −8 or −5 −8 −24 haplotypes may in some instances contribute to compound heterozygosity and clinical TPI deficiency. © 1998 by The American Society of Hematology.

Research Type

Pesta Sekolah are events in social community in Manggarai when the community member wants to continue their studies but are constrained by costs. Pesta Sekolah is a form of social support in the Manggarai community which is reflected in the form of caring and assistance both morally and materially to fellow members. There are Manggarai students who continue their studies at tertiary institutions who have outstanding achievements, however not frequently there are students who do not complete their studies. This study aims to analyze the relationship of social support in the form of a school party with achievement motivation in Manggarai students in Kupang City. The research type is quantitative research. The population is taken based on criteria while sampling uses a total sampling of 71 students from three Manggarai regional organizations in Kupang City. Analysis using Product Moment Pearson Correlation shows that there is a significant relationship between social support in the form of Pesta Sekolah and achievement motivation (r= 0.680; ƿ <0.05).
