Abstract excerpt
More than 80 genetic variants of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) are associated with chronic non-spherocytic haemolytic anaemia (CNSHA). In order to help clarify the molecular basis of this association, we have carried out a detailed biochemical and genetic characterization of two G6PD d...
