Kinetic and electrophoretic properties were studied in 230--300 fold purified preparations of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) from red cells of donors and patients with hemolytic anemia induced by G-6-PD deficiency. In abnormal variant of G-6-PD isolated from red cells of a patient with hemolytic anemia which had not before been described in the literature was found. The abnormal variant differs from the normal enzyme by a decreased Michaelis constant for G-6-P and NADP, by increased utilization of substrate-analogues (2-deoxy-G-6-P and deamino NADP in particular), by low heat stability, the character of pH dependence, and by the appearance of one band of G-6-PD activity during electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel. The isolated abnormal variant of G-6-PD has been called "Kremenchug" according to the origin of the patient. 相似文献

A strain of diploid fibroblasts, obtained from the skin of a male infant, was cultured in vitro and cells were tested throughout their lifespan for the appearance of altered glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) detected either by thermostability studies or by immunotitration. No significant difference was found in the proportion of thermolabile enzyme in 31 young cultures (4.8 +/- 1%, S.E.), in comparison with that in 19 old cultures (4.9 +/- 1%, S.E.). Old cultures had ceased active cell division (49-60 doublings); DNA replication, measured by [3H]thymidine uptake over a period of 24 hours, was limited to less than 5% of these cells. Young cells (5-22 doublings) had a [3H]thymidine labeling index of 75-85%. Titration of G-6-PD activity in extracts of young and old cells with neutralizing antibody directes specifically against G-6-PD failed to detect an increment of enzymatically defective G-6-PD in old cells. The thermostability studies were capable of detecting altered G-6-PD in skin fibroblasts from a female heterozygous for a thermolabile mutant of G-6-PD, and in fibroblasts treated with a proline analogue, azetidine carboxylic acid. The immunotitration technique was also capable of detecting catalytically altered G-6-PD from the thermolabile mutant and G-6-PD inactivated with N-ethylameimide. These findings argue against a protein error catastrophe as the cause of in vitro clonal senescence. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS. The activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) (EC No. 1.1.1.49), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) (EC No. 1.1.1.44), and isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICD) (EC No. 1.1.1.42) from promastigotes of Leishmania donovani strain 3S grown at 25 C in modified Tobie's (mT) medium and from promastigotes of the 37 C-adapted substrain of this strain cultivated in the mT at 37 C were assayed at 25 and 37 C. At 25 C ICD from both the strain and the substrain had the highest, and PGD, the lowest activity; the activity of G-6-PD was intermediate, but much closer to that of ICD. Irrespective of the temperature of the assay, the activities of G-6-PD and ICD from the 37 C substrain were significantly higher than those of these enzymes from the parental strain; however, the activity of PGD from the 25 C strain was slightly higher than that of this dehydrogenase from the 37 C-adapted stock. No significant activity losses of G-6-PD and ICD from either the strain or the substrain were noted after incubation of the extracts in the presence of 0.25 M sucrose at 37 C for 2 hr. PGD was unstable in such extracts, but it could be rendered stable by the addition of 4 mM 6-phosphogluconate. G-6-PD was the least and ICD the most dependent on Mg2+ ions. In the 15–25 C range, the Q10 values of the enzymes from the 25 C strain were 2.83, 2.5, and 2.63 for G-6-PD, PGD, and ICD, respectively. These values for the respective enzymes in the 25–35 C range were 2.06, 1.67, and 1.62. The Q10 values of the enzymes from the 37 C substrain in the 15–25 C range were 2.06 for G-6-PD, 3.25 for PGD, and 2.77 for ICD; in the 25–35 C range, the corresponding values were 1.67, 1.46, and 1.83. Cultivation of the 37 C substrain at 25 C was accompanied by a drop in G-6-PD and ICD activities. 相似文献

Summary Characterization of partially purified eryrhrocyte G-6-PD from 50 enzymedeficient males in 45 unrelated Thai families revealed 6 enzyme variants. Thirty-five subjects in 31 families had G-6-PD variant with normal electrophoretic mobility, slightly low Km G-6-P, normal substrate-analog utilization, normal pH-optimum curve, and slightly increased heat stability. This enzyme variant is called G-6-PD Mahidol.Six subjects had enzyme with fast electrophoretic mobility (106–108% of normal), low Km G-6-P, slightly increased substrate-analog utilization, biphasic pH-optimum curve, and slightly low to normal heat stability. This variant was identical to G-6-PD Canton.Five subjects had G-6-PD with fast electrophoretic mobility (103–106% of normal), low Km G-6-P, very high substrate-analog utilization except for DPN which it did not use as cofactor, markedly biphasic pH-optimum curve and very low heat stability. This variant is called G-6-PD Union (Thai).Two brothers had G-6-PD with normal electrophoretic mobility, low Km G-6-P, slightly increased substrate-analog utilization, biphasic pH-optimum curve and low heat stability. This variant is designated G-6-PD Siriraj.G-6-PD from one patient had slightly fast electrophoretic mobility, increased substrateanalog utilization, especially of DPN, and very low thermal stability. It is called G-6-PD Kan.One subject had G-6-PD with normal electrophoretic mobility, Km G-6-P, pH-optimum curve and heat stability, and increased substrate-analog utilization. This G-6-PD variant is named G-6-PD Anant.G-6-PD Mahidol is far more common than any other known variants in Thailand.

Diese Variante ist identisch mit G-6-PD Canton.Fünt Personen hatten G-6-PD mit rascher elektrophoretischer Wanderung (103–106%), niedrigem Km G-6-P, sehr hoher Substratanalog-Verwertung—mit Ausnahme von DPN, das nicht als Cofactor wirkte—, einer stark biphasischen pH-Optimum-Kurve und sehr geringer Hitze-Stabilität. Diese Variante wurde als G-6-PD Union (Thai) bezeichnet.Zwei Brüder hatten ein G-6-PD mit normaler elektrophoretischer Wanderung, niedrigem Km G-6-P, leicht erhöhter Substratanalog-Verwertung, einer biphasischen pH-Optimum-Kurve und geringer Hitze-Stabilität. Diese Variante erhielt den Namen G-6-PD Siriraj.G-6-PD eines Patienten hatte eine leicht erhöhte elektrophoretische Wanderungsgeschwindigkeit, eine erhöhte Substratanalog-Verwertung, besonders für DPN, und eine sehr geringe Hitze-Stabilität (G-6-PD Kan).Eine Person zeigte ein G-6-PD mit normaler elektrophoretischer Wanderungsgeschwindigkeit, Km G-6-P pH-Optimum-Kurve und Hitze-Stabilität. Nur die Substratanalog-Verwertung war erhöht. Diese Variante wurde G-6-PD Anant gennant.G-6-PD Mahidol ist die bei weitem häufigste Variante in Thailand.

Summary A new Indian variant of erythrocytic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) has been detected in a Koli male subject during population genetic studies. The enzyme variant is characterized by mild enzyme deficiency, slow electrophoretic mobility, low Km for G-6-P, increased utilization of substrate analogues, heat instability and a normal pH optimum curve. From these results this was considered to be a new variant and was designated G-6-PD Kalyan. The family history and routine hematological studies did not reveal any evidence that the G-6-PD Kalyan is associated with any hematological abnormalities or clinical symptoms. 相似文献

Summary Partially purified G-6-PD from 4 deficient Thai males presenting with acute hemolytic anemia showed low Km G-6-P consumption, and very high consumption of 2d G-6-P, Gal-6-P, and dTPN. DPN consumption was zero. The enzyme had very biphasic pH optimum curve and very low heat stability. Electrophoretic mobility was 103–106% of normal. These properties are very similar to those of G-6-PD Union. The enzyme of these 4 subjects is thus named G-6-PD Union (Thai).

Blood samples from 31 male and 34 female, adult, healthy dogs of different breeds were studied for erythrocytic G-6-PD activity. The hemolysates were also studied electrophoretically for G-6-PD, 6-PGD, and hemoglobin variants. Most of the plasma samples revealed a human Hp 1–1 type of band while three samples had an additional fast-moving band that disappeared on addition of an excess of hemoglobin and two samples were ahaptoglobinemic. G-6-PD deficiency was detected in eight samples, and it was more frequent in males than in females. The implications of G-6-PD deficiency with no difference in the electrophoretic pattern and of ahaptoglobinemia are discussed with respect to different genetic and clinical possibilities. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) is the first enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway. Cadmium is a toxic heavy metal that inhibits several enzymes. Zinc is an essential metal but overdoses of zinc have toxic effects on enzyme activities. In this study G-6-PD from lamb kidney cortex was competitively inhibited by zinc both with respect to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) and NADP+ with Ki values of 1.066 ± 0.106 and 0.111 ± 0.007 mM respectively whereas cadmium was a non-competitive inhibitor with respect to both G-6-P and NADP+ Ki values of 2.028 ± 0.175 and 2.044 ± 0.289 mM respectively. 相似文献

蜂毒肽的溶血作用与红细胞膜上两种酶活性变化的关系 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
从蜂毒肽作用于红细胞膜上的Na+-K+-ATPase和葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶(G-6-PD)活性变化的角度,利用分光光度法测定酶活性,研究蜂毒肽与红细胞及膜作用过程中可能的靶点,讨论了蜂毒肽溶血过程与RBC膜上2种酶活性的变化.结果发现,蜂毒肽抑制RBC膜上酶活性的主要模式为附着/插入质膜与游离态并存模式,附着/插入质膜中的作用大于游离态的作用.Na+-K+-ATPase的K+结合位点是蜂毒肽的1个作用靶点.蜂毒肽插膜过程与其对此酶的作用随时间延长同步发生.蜂毒肽通过作用于葡萄糖-6-磷酸和NADP使G-6-PD的催化受到缓慢抑制,蜂毒肽形成四聚体的程度与酶活性密切相关.EDTA抑制蜂毒肽聚集,干扰蜂毒肽作用于G-6-P,蜂毒肽作用于底物G-6-P及辅酶NADP的生化机理相似,蜂毒肽抑制作用与G-6-PD的结构无关. 相似文献

The effect in vitro was studied of methylguanidine (MG) and guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA) on the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-P DH) and transketolase (ETKA) of normal erythrocytes. The results show that MG in concentration (1.8 X 10(-5) mol/l) approximate to or higher then its concentration in plasma of patients with chronic renal failure (ch.r.f.) inhibits the activity of G-6-P DH. The changes of similar nature have been observed in case of GSA. In the same incubation conditions MG or GSA bring about the inhibition of ETKA activity in red blood cells. MG and GSA jointly introduced into incubation mixture in concentrations approximate to those appearing in plasma of patients with ch.r.f. cause the inhibition of G-6-P DH by 35.6% on the average, with no statistically significant differences in ETKA activity. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) is one of the important enzymes, which is responsible for the production of NADPH and ribose-5-phosphate. NADPH is used for the biosynthetic reactions and protection of the cells from free radicals. We have investigated some properties and kinetic mechanism of the sheep kidney cortex G-6-PD. This enzyme has been purified 1,384-fold with a yield of 16.96% and had a specific activity of 27.69 U/mg protein. The purification procedure consists of 2', 5'-ADP-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography after ultracentrifugation. The sheep kidney cortex G-6-PD was found to operate according to a Ping Pong Bi Bi mechanism. The kinetic parameters from sheep K(m) values for G-6-P and NADP(+) and V(m) were determined to be 0.041+/-0.0043 mM, 0.0147+/-0.001 mM and 28.23+/-0.86 microMol min(-1) mg protein(-1), respectively. The pH optimum was 7.4 and the optimum temperature was 45 degrees C. In our previous study we have found that lamb kidney cortex G-6-PD enzyme obeys 'Ordered Bi Bi' mechanism. We suggest that kinetic mechanism altered due to the aging since sheep G-6-PD uses a 'ping pong' mechanism. 相似文献

Activities of six enzymes from extracts of separated embryos and gametophytes of tamarack [ Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch] seeds were assayed at various stages of imbibition and germination. On a per seed part basis, activities of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD, EC 1.1.1.44), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD, EC 1.1.1.49), malate dehydrogenase (NAD+ –MDH, EC 1.1.1.37), isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+ –IDH, EC 1.1.1.42), soluble peroxidase (PER, EC 1.11.1.7), and acid phosphatase (ACP, EC 3.1.3.2) from both the embryo and gametophyte tissues generally increased slowly, following cold stratification for 30 days and imbibition under germinating conditions for 5 days, but then increased at a faster rate with emergence of the radicle and subsequent growth of the seedling. The rate of increase of enzyme activity was highest for PER. Soluble protein levels also increased with imbibition and germination, with about 3 times greater levels present in the gametophyte than in the embryo. Heat inactivation experiments showed that, except for G-6-PD, activities were stable up to 40°C. Inactivation occurred at lower temperatures for G-6-PD, while higher temperatures were required for PER. Incubation of extracts for 7 days at 4°C indicated that loss of enzyme activity was greatest for G-6-PD (3.9% remaining) and least for PER and ACP (94 and 95% remaining, respectively). 相似文献

Mercury-induced renal tubular lesions in the rat present histochemically with a decrease of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), and unspecific esterase (UE), but with an increase of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), indicating a drop of energy supply as well as a switch from oxidative to glycolytic energy production. L-thyroxine has the same effect on SDH, G-6-PD, and LDH, but an inverse effect on MDH and UE, pointing to stimulation of gluconeogenesis. However, administration of L-thyroxine to animals which have been submitted to sublimate intoxication even further decreases the MDH and UE activity while raising or partly restoring the activity of LDH, SDH, and G-6-PD. This observation is interpreted as an attempt of the damaged epithelial cell, as the gluconeogenesis ceases, to gain relatively more energy supply for the benefit of the vitally indispensable tubular Na+ reabsorption. 相似文献

The electrophoretic patterns of glucose metabolizing enzymes and acid phosphatase in mouse and human neuroblastoma cells were investigated. Mouse neuroblastoma cells had one band of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and two bands of acid phosphatase, whereas human neuroblastoma cells had five bands of LDH and one band of acid phosphatase. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD) were expressed as a single band in both mouse and human neuroblastoma cells. The electrophoretic pattern of LDH was similar in mouse neuroblastoma cells grown in culture or in vivo. The electrophoretic band of G-6-PD in mouse neuroblastoma cells grown in vivo appeared to be less dense than that observed in cells grown in culture; however, the reverse was true for 6-PGD. Among all enzymes examined, only the electrophoretic pattern of G-6-PD in cAMP-induced “differentiated” mouse neuroblastoma was different in comparison to control cells. 相似文献

The capacity of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) in the heart is limited, since the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), the first and regulating enzyme of this pathway, is very low. Two mechanisms are involved in the regulation of this pathway. Under normal conditions, G-6-PD is inhibited by NADPH. This can be overcome in the isolated perfused rat heart by increasing the oxidized glutathione and by elevating the NADP+/NADPH ratio. Besides this rapid control mechanism, there is a long-term regulation which involves the synthesis of G-6-PD. The activity of G-6-PD was elevated in the rat heart during the development of cardiac hypertrophy due to constriction of the abdominal aorta and in the non-ischemic part of the rat heart subsequent to myocardial infarction. The catecholamines isoproterenol and norepinephrine stimulated the activity of myocardial G-6-PD in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The isoproterenol-induced stimulation was cAMP-dependent and due to increased new synthesis of enzyme protein. The G-6-PD mRNA was elevated by norepinephrine. As a consequence of the stimulation of the oxidative PPP, the available pool of 5-phosphoribosyl-l-pyrophosphate (PRPP) was expanded. PRPP is an important precursor substrate for purine and pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. The limiting step in the oxidative PPP, the G-6-PD reaction, can be bypassed with ribose. This leads to an elevation of the cardiac PRPP pool. The decline in ATP that is induced in many pathophysiological conditions was attenuated or even entirely prevented by i.v. infusion of ribose. In two in vivo rat models, the overloaded and catecholamine-stimulated heart and the infarcted heart, the normalization of the cardiac adenine nucleotide pool by ribose was accompanied by an improvement of global heart function. Combination of ribose with adenine or inosine in isoproterenol-treated rats was more effective to restore completely the cardiac ATP level within a short period of time than either intervention alone.

1. Resting rates of Rana ridibunda erythrocyte glucose consumption and 14CO2 production from 1-14C-glucose were found to be significantly lower than the respective values in human erythrocytes. 2. In the presence of 1-14C-glucose Methylene Blue stimulated 14CO2 production 7-fold, while in the presence of 6-14C-glucose Methylene Blue stimulated 14CO2 production 1.2-fold. 3. The Km of G-6-PD for G-6-P and NADP were 29 and 12 microM, respectively while the Km of 6-PGD for 6-PG and NADP were 83 and 32 microM, respectively. The Ki of G-6-PD and 6-PGD for NADPH were 80 and 12 microM, respectively. 4. Excess amounts of NADP resulted in a significant decrease of 14CO2 production from 1-14C-glucose in total haemolysates. 5. ATP, ADP and fructose diphosphate inhibited both G-6-PD and 6-PGD, the latter being more sensitive than G-6-PD to their inhibitory effect, 2,3-DPG and reduced and oxidized glutathione showed a marked inhibitory effect on 6-PGD, while the phosphorylated trioses inhibited only G-6-PD. 6. Physiological concentrations of oxidized glutathione decreased the inhibition exercised by NADPH on G-6-PD. 7. The possible role of the two dehydrogenases in the regulation of the HMS is discussed. 相似文献

Activities of phosphofructokinase (PFK, EC 2.7.1.11), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (NAD) dehydrogenase [G-3-PD(NAD), EC 1.2.1.12], glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD, EC 1.1.1.49), and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD, EC 1.1.1.44) were determined in bean cuttings (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Top Crop) over 4 days, encompassing adventitious root primordium initiation and development. Effects of applied auxin and “endogenous root-forming stimulus”(ERS) on enzyme activities, concentrations of reducing sugars, and primordium development were also determined during the first 4 days of propagation. Effects of auxin were determined through use of applied indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) or 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid. Effects of ERS were evaluated by means of decapitation of cuttings. Increased basipetal transport and increased metabolism of reducing sugars occurred in leafy cuttings in response to applied IAA and to ERS. Primordium development and activities of the four enzymes increased in leafy cuttings under conditions that simultaneously increased basipetal transport and metabolism of reducing sugars. Three types of enzyme activity response were found: (i) activity increased over time by ERS and by applied IAA [G-3-PD(NAD)], (ii) activity increased over time by ERS but not by applied IAA (PFK, G-6-PD), (iii) activity increased over time but not by ERS or applied IAA (6-PGD). Increases in G-3-PD(NAD), G-6-PD, and PFK activity in leafy cuttings were positively related to primordium development. 6-PGD activity increased in leafy cuttings during primordium development and may have supported it. However, equal increases occurred in decapitated cuttings, in which the long-term development of primordia was supressed. Results for G-3-PD(NAD) that were obtained in an experiment with jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) seedling cuttings were similar to results for the same enzyme in bean cuttings. G-3-PD(NAD) activity in naphthaleneacetic acid-treated jack pine cuttings increased with time, in comparison with untreated cuttings, before root emergence. 相似文献

Summary The activities of the erythrocyte enzymes hexokinase (HK), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PO) were determined in a group of 12 Europeans and in a group of 103 male Thai subjects in northern Thailand. In the Thai group there were 16 subjects with G-6-PD deficiency and 28 subjects with abnormally low levels of GR activity. A comparison of the enzyme activities in the different subgroups indicated that HK and 6-PGD are not influenced by G-6-PD deficiency whereas GR and GSH-PO activities are significantly higher in G-6-PD deficient subjects. In the group with low GR activity G-6-PD and GSH-PO showed a tendency to an elevation of activity when compared with the normal control group. Significant positive correlations exist between G-6-PD and 6-PGD in the normal group and between GR and GSH-PO in the G-6-PD deficient group. A negative correlation between GR and GSH-PO was present in the group with low GR activities. A study of the families of subjects with low activity of GR did not yield evidence for the existence of a deficiency polymorphism.

Zusammenfassung Bei 12 Europäern und einer Gruppe von 103 männlichen thailändischen Versuchspersonen wurden die Aktivitäten der Erythrocytenenzyme Hexokinase (HK), Glucose-6-Phosphat-Dehydrogenase (G-6-PD), 6-Phosphogluconat-Dehydrogenase (6-PGD), Glutathion-Reduktase (GR) und Glutathion-Peroxidase (GSH-PO) bestimmt. In der Thai-Gruppe waren 16 Personen mit G-6-PD-Mangel und 28 Personen mit abnormal niedrigen Aktivitäten der GR. Ein Vergleich der Enzymaktivitäten in verschiedenen Untergruppen zeigte, daß HK und 6-PGD durch G-6-PD-Mangel nicht beeinflußt werden. Im Gegensatz hierzu sind die Aktivitäten der GR und der GSH-PO bei G-6-PD-Mangel signifikant erhöht. In der Gruppe mit erniedrigter GR-Aktivität bestand eine Tendenz zu erhöhten Werten für G-6-PD und GSH-PO. Die Korrelationen zwischen G-6-PD und 6-PGD in der Gruppe mit normaler G-6-PD und die zwischen GR und GSH-PO in der Gruppe mit G-6-PD-Mangel waren signifikant. In der Gruppe mit erniedrigter GR-Aktivität fand sich eine negative Korrelation zwischen GR und GSH-PO. Die Untersuchungen in Familien von Personen mit niedriger GR-Aktivität ergaben keinen sicheren Hinweis auf das Vorliegen eines GR-Mangel-Polymorphismus in der untersuchten Bevölkerung.

Studies have been conducted on eight sets of monozygous and nine sets of dizygous female Negro twins, both members of whom were heterozygous for G-6-PD deficiency. Twins were studied both by assay of erythrocytic G-6-PD activity and by the methemoglobin elution test (MET). The MET is a procedure which identifies histochemically cells with appreciable G-6-PD activity and permits accurate determination of the percentage of such cells in heterozygotes. Monozygous twins showed significantly less within-pair variation than dizygous twins with both the MET and G-6-PD assay.Concerning the significantly greater agreement in MET results in monozygous twins than dizygous twins, our present working hypothesis is that X-chromosomal inactivation in the Negro female is genetically controlled, rather than random. However, certain alternate hypotheses allowing for random X-inactivation have not been excluded; these include somatic cell selection after random X-inactivation, and cell exchange between identical twins in utero/it. Studies in nontwin related heterozygotes now underway should help differentiate among these various possibilities.In addition to the studies on 17 pairs of female twins heterozygous for G-6-PD deficiency, 26 pairs of nondeficient female Negro twins have been studied by G-6-PD assay. Within-pair variation in monozygous twins was significantly less than within-pair variation in dizygous twins in all cases. The genetic influences detected with the G-6-PD assay in the female twins could theoretically be due to nonrandom X-inactivation, to genetically determined quantitative differences in enzyme activity (e.g., isoalleles), or to both. By appropriate calculations, based on the MET results, we have factored out the effects of X-inactivation on overall enzyme activity in the heterozygous deficient twins. After removal of the effect of X-inactivation, monozygous twins heterozygous for enzyme deficiency continue to show significantly less within-pair variation than dizygous twins. This finding indicates significant genetic influences on quantitative G-6-PD activity other than X-inactivation and other than the deficiency allele. This conclusion has been strengthened by studies on male twins where X-inactivation is not present.Supported by USPHS research grants AM-09381, HE-17544, AM-09919, and HE-03341, by USPHS Career Development Award 1-K3-AM-7959 (Dr. Brewer) and by U.S.A.E.C.
