G6PD mRNA and protein levels and enzymatic activity in CB CD34+-derived, normal PB-derived, and G6PD-deficient peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-derived erythroid precursors. Highly purified day 5 erythroid precursors derived in vitro from CB or PBMCs were treated with 1 mM NaBu or medium control for 48 hours.
