A missense homozygous mutation was found inglucose-6-phosphate isomerase, GPI [c.1040G>A (p.Arg347His), rs137853583] which results in nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia.

We have investigated the molecular bases of the disease by studying the biochemical properties of the recombinant wild-type human enzyme and 4 variant proteins (D87V, L131P, N179S, and G230R) bearing missense mutations found in patients affected by nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia.
