Gene |
GAA |
Chromosomal Location |
17q25.2-q25.3 |
Allelic Variant 1 |
606800.0003; GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE TYPE II, INFANTILE FORM |
Identified Mutation |
GLU521LYS; In 2 affected children in a consanguineous Indian family, Hermans et al. (1991) found a G-to-A transition in exon 11 of the GAA gene, resulting in substitution of lysine for glutamic acid-521, just 3 amino acids downstream from the catalytic site of the enzyme at asp518. Both affected sibs were homozygous and both parents were heterozygous for the mutant allele. The mutation was introduced into wildtype lysosomal alpha-glucosidase cDNA and the mutant construct was expressed in vitro and in vivo. The substitution proved to account for the abnormal physical properties of the enzyme precursor in the patients and to prevent formation of a catalytically active enzyme.

Remarks |
Hepatomegaly; cardiomegaly; hypotonia; muscle biopsy showed no detectable acid alpha-1,4 glucosidase, GAA, activity; donor subject is homozygous for a missense mutation caused by a G>A transition at nucleotide 1561 in exon 11 of the GAA gene (1561G>A) which results in the substitution of lysine for glutaminc acid at codon 521 [Glu521Lys (E521K)], three amino acids downstream from the catalytic site of the enzyme at Asp518. |
