The enzyme of hexose monophosphate shunt which is responsible for the resistance to malaria in some Africans is
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
Gluconolactonase
6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase
Transaldolase
Resistance to malaria in some Africans are associated with a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase enzyme because malarial parasites depend upon HMP shunt to reduce glutathione in RBCs.
