Abstract excerpt
Deficiency of glycogen debranching enzyme (AGL) activity causes glycogen storage disease type III (GSD-III). Generalized loss of AGL activity results in GSD-IIIa, and muscle-specific retention of AGL activity results in GSD-IIIb. To date, no common mutation has been described among GSD-III patients, except for three alleles; two linked specifically with GSD-IIIb, and the third found only in North African Jews...
