Abstract excerpt
Glucose-6-PHOSPHATE dehydrogenase (G6PD; EC 1.1.1.49) deficiency is the most common human enzymopathy, affecting more than 200 million people worldwide. Although greater than 400 variants have been described based on clinical and biochemical criteria, little is known about the molecular basis of these G6PD deficiencies. Recently, the gene that encodes human G6PD has been cloned and sequenced, which enables us to...
