It affects about 1 in 10 African American males in the United States.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is a genetic disorder that affects red blood cells, which carry oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body. In affected individuals, a defect in an enzyme called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase causes red blood cells to break down prematurely. This destruction of red blood cells is called hemolysis.

results from mutations in the G6PD gene.
Different variants of G6PD are found in high frequency in African, Mediterranean, and Asiatic populations
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; EC 1.1.1.49) plays a key role in the production of ribose 5-phosphate and the generation of NADPH in the hexose monophosphate pathway. Because this pathway is the only NADPH-generation process in mature red cells, which lack the citric acid cycle, a genetic deficiency of G6PD (300908) is often associated with adverse physiologic effects
chromosome 11, p 15.4
- Increased susceptibility to bacterial infections - Resistance to falciparum malaria infection - stroke -joint and leg pain
HbS has a lower oxygen affinity than normal Hb and polymerizes upon deoxygenation, creating red blood cells that are distorted, resulting in a sickled appearance; adherent, leading to vasoocclusion; and fragile, leading to hemolysis. The clinical consequences of the vascular occlusion are variable, but include bone pain, deep venous thrombosis, acute chest syndrome, and stroke. In an aortic ring bioassay
- Sickle cell anemia - Anemia, chronic - Hemolysis - Hypoxemia - Leukocytosis
Caused by mutation in the hemoglobin beta gene (HBB, 141900.0243)
The estimated number of worldwide annual births of patients with sickle cell anemia is 217,331
Sickle cell anemia is a multisystem disease associated with episodes of acute illness and progressive organ damage. Hemoglobin polymerization, leading to erythrocyte rigidity and vasoocclusion, is central to the pathophysiology of the disease, but the importance of chronic anemia, hemolysis, and vasculopathy has been established.
Ramus et al. (1992) used PCR amplification of the low levels of mRNA resulting from illegitimate transcription of the PAH gene in fibroblasts and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphocytes to detect mutations in patients with PKU.

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism resulting from a deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase. an enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of phenylalanine to tyrosine, the rate-limiting step in phenylalanine catabolism.
If doctors suspect a person is G6PD-deficient, they will conduct a variety of blood tests to confirm a diagnosis and rule out other conditions that cause similar conditions.
most G6PD-deficient persons are asymptomatic most of the time; however, any one of them, when exposed to certain triggering factors, can develop acute hemolytic anemia (AHA), which may be life-threatening especially in children.
Treatment may involve medicines to treat infection, stopping drugs that are causing red blood cell destruction, and/or transfusions, in some cases.

Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a hereditary condition in which red blood cells break down (hemolysis) when the body is exposed to certain foods, drugs, infections or stress. It occurs when a person is missing or has low levels of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.
