The molecular biology of G6PD variants and other red cell enzyme defects.

Abstract excerpt

Modern techniques of molecular biology have made it possible to identify mutations in a number of different hereditary red cell enzyme defects. Most of the studies have been performed in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, where a large number of point mutations have been identified. The same mutations are encountered repeatedly, even in patients with defects that were thought, on the basis of...
