Pyruvate kinase is an essential enzyme for energy production in red blood cells. Clinical signs are anaemia, weakness, hepatosplenomegaly. Bone marrow and liver failure usually occur before the age of 5 years. Heterozygous animals (healthy carriers) show no clinical signs, but have reduced levels of pyruvate kinase activity. Bone marrow transplants have been used to alleviate clinical signs in affected dogs.
