Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency in the glycogen debranching enzyme (gene symbol: AGL) with two enzyme activities: transferase and glucosidase. A missense mutation causing isolated glucosidase deficiency has never been reported. In this study, we examined 23 patients of Turkish ancestry and identified a novel missense mutation p. R1147G with isolated glucosidase deficiency, along with nine AGL mutations: six nonsense mutations (p. W373X, p. R595X, p. Q667X, p. Q1205X, p. W1327X and p. Q1376X), one deletion (c. 1019delA) and two splicing mutation (c. 293+ 2T> G and c. 958+ 1G> A). As p. R1147G impaired glucosidase activity, but maintained transferase activity in vitro, a 12-year-old girl homozygous for p. R1147G was diagnosed with having isolated glucosidase deficiency. Of nine other mutations, p. W1327X and c. 1019delA were ... |
