Human Genetics
|January 1, 1985
Abstract:
Two new G-6-PD variants designated G-6-PD Jalisco and G-6-PD Morelia were identified in two unrelated Mexican families. An additional G-6-PD variant was found in each family: G-6-PD Trinacria and G-6-PD A-. In both families compound heterozygotes were identified. G-6-PD Jalisco and G-6-PD Morelia belong to Classes 3 and 4, respectively. G-6-PD Morelia is the first variant from its class with a high Km for NADP and a low Ki for NADPH.
