A 34-year-old African American man comes to the physician because of muscle aches and reddish brown urine for 12 hours. He began treatment with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 1 day ago for otitis media. He is allergic to penicillin. A sample of blood after centrifugation shows red serum. A deficiency of which of the following enzymes is the most likely cause of these adverse effects?

A) Acetyltransferase
B) Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
C) γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase
D) Glutathione reductase
E) 1α-Hydroxylase
