Report of an Italian family carrying a typical Indian variant of the Nilgiris tribal groups resulting from a de novo occurrence

G6PD deficiency is quite common in Italy where it is characterized by extreme molecular and biochemical heterogeneity. We report a 15-year-old Italian boy with G6PD Nilgiri (c.593G>A, p.Arg198His), a typical Indian variant of the Nilgiris tribal groups. Further, this variant was biochemically cha...

description G6PD deficiency is quite common in Italy where it is characterized by extreme molecular and biochemical heterogeneity. We report a 15-year-old Italian boy with G6PD Nilgiri (c.593G>A, p.Arg198His), a typical Indian variant of the Nilgiris tribal groups. Further, this variant was biochemically characterized, and the molecular screening of the family highlighted a de novo mutational event. To date, this family is the first Caucasian family carrying the G6PD Nilgiri variant.
