Zusammenfassung: | The gene responsible for RD encodes the adenylate kinase 2 (AK2) protein,2,3 a ubiquitous enzyme that induces the reverse transphosphorylation of AMP and ATP molecules into adenosine diphosphate.4 Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can correct hematopoiesis,5 demonstrating that the defect in RD is intrinsic and not microenvironmental.
