Molecular Characterization of G6PD Deficiency: Report of Three Novel G6PD Variants
G6PD deficiency is a monogenic, X-linked genetic defect with a worldwide prevalence of around 400 million people and an overall prevalence of 8.5% in India. Hemolytic anemia is encountered in only a small proportion of patients with G6PD variants and is usually triggered by some exogenous agent.

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

Chronic hemolytic anemia is associated with a new glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in-frame deletion in an older woman [PDF]
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, an X-linked disorder, is usually observed in hemizygote males and very rarely in females. The G6PD class 1 variants, very uncommon, are associated with chronic hemolytic anemia.

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.

Pyruvate kinase deficiency and G6PD deficiency
G6PD deficiency was discovered in 1956. It causes drug-induced acute hemolysis and is inherited by a sex-linked recessive trait. While the disorder is frequently seen in Negroes and inhabitants around the Mediterranean basin, it is rare in Japanese, the frequency of which is about 0.1%.
