Forty-eight patients with glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD Ia) were studied. Using a combination of single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, restriction enzyme digestion and direct sequencing, we were able to identify 93/96 mutant alleles, comprising 23 different mutations in th

Glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD-Ia) is an autosomal recessive disorder of glycogen metabolism caused by glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) deficiency. It is characterized by short stature, hepatomegaly, hypoglycemia, hyperuricemia, and lactic acidemia. Various mutations have been reported in the G
We identified a novel mutation (867delA) in the glucose-6-phosphatase gene of two siblings with glycogen storage disease type Ia. Although both siblings share the same mutations, their phenotype regarding adult height and hepatomegaly differs. In glycogen storage disease type Ia, substantial heterog
Three novel mutations, Q54P, W70X and T108I, were identified in the gene encoding glucose-6phosphatase in three patients with glycogen storage disease type Ia. Two sibs of Portuguese origin were homozygous for the Q54P mutation whereas the third patient, originating from both France and Lebanon, was
Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD-III) is an autosomal recessive disease resulting from deficient glycogen debranching enzyme (ODE) activity. A child with GDE deficient in both liver and muscle (GSD-IIIa) had recurrent hypoglycemia, seizures, severe cardiomegaly, and hepatomegaly and died at 4
