Abstract excerpt
Human glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) has both the "catalytic" NADP(+) site and a "structural" NADP(+) site where a number of severe G6PD deficiency mutations are located. Two pairs of G6PD clinical mutants, G6PD(Wisconsin) (R393G) and G6PD(Nashville) (R393H), and G6PD(Fukaya) (G488S) and G6PD(Campinas) (G488V), in which the mutations are in the vicinity of the "structural" NADP(+) site, showed elevated...
