. A family is described in which an apparent A y phenotype was transmitted through 2 generations. We favor a mutation of the A allele as the most likely cause of the phenotype. Activities of the serum A ‐gene‐specified transferase were not detected in any of the 3 family members with the A y phenotypes.
