Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
G338D loss-of-function mutation in the erythrocyte-specific pyruvate kinase gene resulting in hemolytic anemia with dramatic reduction in the half-life of eryhtrocytes. Mice carrying the mutation are highly resistant to infection with Plasmodium chabaudi. Mutation G338D has more severe effects on pyruvate kinase as well as higher protection against malaria infection than less severe mutation I90N Mus musculus
I90N loss-of-function mutation in the reythrocyte-specific pyruvate kinase gene, protective against blood-stage malaria. Mutation G338D has more severe effects on pyruvate kinase as well as higher protection against malaria infection than less severe mutation I90N Mus musculus
