H6PD

Gene Information
 
Gene Symbol
H6PD
 
Aliases
CORTRD1, G6PDH, GDH, H6PDH
 
Entrez Gene ID
 
Gene Name
Hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase/glucose 1-dehydrogenase
 
Chromosomal Location
1p36.22
 
HGNC ID
 
Summary
There are 2 forms of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. G form is X-linked and H form, encoded by this gene, is autosomally linked. This H form shows activity with other hexose-6-phosphates, especially galactose-6-phosphate, whereas the G form is specific for glucose-6-phosphate. Both forms are present in most tissues, but H form is not found in red cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
