Red cell pyruvate kinase (PK, EC.2.7.1.40) deficiency is the most common enzyme abnormality in the Embden Meyerhoff pathway of glycolysis in humans. Prenatal diagnosis can be done accurately by analyzing fetal DNA for the mutation causing the enzyme deficiency. mutations in the PKLR gene in a nine-year-old child with severe PK deficiency and identified a homozygous GA substitution at nucleotide 1436, changing arginine to histidine varied; however, once the mutation in the parents and an affected child born earlier is characterized, prenatal diagnosis can be easily done in the first trimester of pregnancy by CVS and Prenatal diagnosis of pyruvate kinase deficiency due to a codon 479 (1436GA) mutation.
