Overview
The most common cause of G6PD deficiency is due to genetic disorder. Less common cause of G6PD deficiency include neutrophil dysfunction.

Causes
Common Causes
Common cause of G6PD deficiency may include:
- Genetic: G6PD deficiency is an X-linked disorder
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of G6PD deficiency include:
- Neutrophil dysfunction in severe G6PD deficiency ( <20 percent activity ) [1]
Genetic Causes
The gene G6PD is located in the distal long arm of the X chromosome at the Xq28 locus. G6PD B, is the wild type or normal.[2]
The development of G6PD deficency is the result of missense point mutations and also a few deletions[3]
