Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency
In this condition, the body is missing an enzyme called pyruvate (PI-ru-vate) kinase. Not having enough of this enzyme causes red blood cells to break down easily.
Definition Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is part of a group of disorders called hereditary nonspherocytic hemolytic anemias. Hereditary nonspherocytic anemias are rare genetic conditions that affect the red blood cells.

Common examples are pyruvate kinase deficiency (see Anemias Caused by Hemolysis: Embden-Meyerhof Pathway Defects) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency (see Anemias Caused by Hemolysis: Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) ...
Pyruvate kinase deficiency a hereditary deficiency of the enzyme pyruvate kinase. Pyruvate kinase deficiency results in hemolytic anemia. Quartile one fourth of a sample or population. Quintile one fifth of a sample or population.

The more common of the enzyme deficiencies that lead to HNSHA involve glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, pyruvate kinase deficiency and hexokinase deficiency.
determined defects include defects of the membrane (as in hereditary spherocytosis), defects in the structure or production of hemoglobin (as in sickle cell anemia or thalassemia), or deficiencies of needed enzymes (as in pyruvate kinase deficiency).
