Analysis of Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Genetic Polymorphism in the Hakka Population in Southern China.

CONCLUSIONS We studied the genetic polymorphisms and frequencies of G6PD gene in the Hakka population of Meizhou. Our results coincide with the results among the Chinese Jiangxi Hakka population. It was consistent with previous research reports on Chinese people. There were differences in the results of reports from some other Asian populations. Our results could be useful for future prevention and control of G6PD deficiency aimed at the Chinese Hakka population. PMID: 30315739 [PubMed - in process]
