Abstract excerpt
We report two novel homozygous mutations in the myophosphorylase gene (PYGM) in a patient with McArdle's disease. A C-to-T transition that changed an arginine to tryptophan at codon 193 (R193W) in exon 5, and a deletion of two adenine base pairs in exon 20 at codon 794/795 (794/795 delAA) were identified. Several lines of evidence suggest the pathogenicity of both mutations: (i) they were the only nucleotide...
