Abstract
Polyadenine insertion disrupting the G6PC1 gene in German Pinschers with glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD1A).
Highlights
Glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are a group of inherited disorders of carbohydrate metabolism that occur in humans and animals
Variants in 20 different genes are currently known to result in GSD in humans.[1]
The disease is characterized by severe hypoglycemia and hepatomegaly owing to hepatic glycogen accumulation early in life.[2]
