Abstract Analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) restriction polymorphism
carried out in a sample of Russians from Magadan (n= 150) showed that
the frequency of the +4332AvaII variant (a T–C transition at nucleotide
position 4336) in this population was 4.7%. All +4332AvaII types of
mtDNA belonged to the mitochondrial group H. They were characterized by
a back of the AluI restriction endonuclease site at position 7025.
According to hypervariable segment 1 sequencing data, they contained the
16304C variant, and thus belong to the subgroup H1. Thus, the +4332AvaII
(T4336C) variant is a marker of the mitochondrial subgroup H1, chiefly
occurring in German-speaking populations. Utilization of the H1-mtDNA
markers for the investigation of the genetic history and the origin of
Slavs is discussed.

Notes:
I think , oh how fast it changes, that what they are calling H1 is now
called H5a.
