Popis: The review is devoted to one of the main regulatory enzymes of glycolysis in erythrocytes – pyruvate kinase, a deficiency of which is often the cause of hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. The article presents data on the structure and function of pyruvate kinase and the currently known mutations of coding this enzyme gene. Authors analyzed associations between various genetic types and impaired enzyme function and the severity of the hemoly sis.
