A new G-6PD varient with enzyme deficiency is described in a 7-month-old Turkish boy without any hemolytic manifestation, except neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. The main characteristics of this variant were the following: Severe enzyme deficiency in erythrocytes (8% of normal), fast starch-gel-electrophoretic mobility (110% of normal), increased Ki NADPH with respect to NADP+, slightly biphasic pH curve, enzyme instability, in vivo and in vitro, decreased molecular specific activity (58% of normal).
