  • Title: Frequency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase variants and deficiency in Arabia.
    Author: el-Hazmi MA, Warsy AS.
    Journal: Gene Geogr; 1990 Apr; 4(1):15-9. PubMed ID: 2278899.
    Abstract:
    Several variants of G6PD were found in different regions of Saudi Arabia. The variants were separated on the basis of their electrophoretic mobility and activity towards glucose-6-phosphate. G6PD*B was the most common enzyme found in all regions investigated. Variants included G6PD*A, G6PD*A-, G6PD*B weak and G6PD*def. The frequency of the variants shows significant differences among the regions of Saudi Arabia examined.
