Abstract excerpt
Pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by chronic hemolytic anemia of variable severity. Nine Polish patients with severe hemolytic anemia but normal PK activity were found to carry mutations in the PKLR gene encoding PK, five already known ones and one novel (c.178C > T). We characterized two of the known variants by molecular modeling (c.1058delAAG) and minigene...
