Abstract

Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common human enzyme deficiency. Molecular abnormalities data from Egypt are scarce, and have not been extensively investigated. To fill this gap, we investigated the frequency of the presence of certain known G6PD mutations among Egyptian patients with G6PD-deficiency.
