Abstract excerpt
Five unrelated patients with hereditary glucosephosphate isomerase (GPI) deficiency resulting in nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia were studied. Three new mutations were found in the coding region of the GPI gene: two patients were heterozygous for 223 A-->G (R75G) and 898 G-->C(R300P), respectively and one was homozygous for 1415G-->A(R472H). Surprisingly, 2 previously reported mutations, 286 C-->T and 1039 C-->T,...
