Canine Model and Genomic Structural Organization of Glycogen Storage Disease Type Ia (GSD Ia)
1 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
A canine model of glycogen storage disease Ia (GSD Ia), similar clinically, biochemically, and pathologically to the human disease, was established by crossbreeding Maltese and Beagle dogs carrying a mutated, defective glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) gene. Ten puppies were born in three litters from these crossbreedings. Six were homozygous for the previously described M121I GSD Ia mutation. Of these six...
