Severe erythrocyte adenylate kinase deficiency due to homozygous A-->G substitution at codon 164 of human AK1 gene associated with chronic haemolytic anaemia.

abstract：:The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) have a significant frequency of evolution into acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Approximately 30% of MDS patients show activating mutations of the N-RAS proto-oncogene, and these patients are at increased risk of leukaemic evolution. Long-term survivors of aplastic anaemia (AA) and pa...
