Abstract excerpt
We have recently identified that at least four types of mutation are responsible for the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) polymorphism in the Chinese of Taiwan. Two mutations (487 G-->A and 493 A-->G) occurring at nucleotide position 487 and 493, respectively, create Alu I and Ava II reco...
