| molecular genetics of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in mexico. | several studies carried out between 1965 and 1985 showed that g-6-pd deficiency in mexico is heterogeneous at the biochemical level and that the g-6-pd a- phenotype is relatively common. we have now investigated the molecular basis of g-6-pd deficiency in mexico. up-to-date 60 chromosomes with g6pd mutations have been studied, 16 in previous studies and 44 in the present work. molecular analysis of dna from g-6-pd deficient mexican mestizos and their relatives show that g-6-pd a- genotypes are r ... | 1997 | 9215753 |
