Abstract
AbstractA glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) variant was studied in a mulatto patient with chronic nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. This variant has reduced activity, increased thermolability, a reduced Michaelis constant for glucose‐6‐phosphate, slightly increased electrophoretic mobility, a biphasic pH activity profile, high 2‐deoxy‐glucose‐6‐phosphate utilization, normal diamino nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate utilization and a peak of elution profile after G6PD B. The electrophoretic, kinetic, and chromatographic properties of this erythrocyte G6PD variant allow the conclusion that G6PD Varadero is probably a new variant.
