Abstract excerpt
Earlier we have reported two G6PD variants viz.; G6PD Jamnagar and G6PD Rohini. The enzymes from both the variants showed altered biochemical properties with mild enzyme deficiency and were classified as unique Class III variants. G6PD Jamnagar was found to be associated with drug-induced hemolytic anemia whereas G6PD Rohini was picked up during a population survey. Subsequent molecular studies on the DNA from...
