Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is derived from red blood cells and catalyzes glucose-6-phosphate. NAD-PH is a coenzyme of glutathione reductase. Reduced glutathione (GSH) is used to maintain hemoglobin stability and red blood cells. Necessary conditions for membrane integrity. Erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, red blood cell membrane loss of thiol protection and impaired function, eventually leading to hemolysis. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (trap) gene is on the X chromosome, and it is inherited by females, and most male patients.
