Abstract
We investigated 78 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficient alleles from the Fars province of Iran by polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and direct sequencing. The frequency of G6PD Mediterranean in Fars was 84.6%, G6PD Chatham was found to be highly polymorphic and two other sporadic variants (G6PD A- and G6PD Canton) were detected in single cases.
