Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficiency in the glycogen debranching enzyme (gene symbol: AGL) with two enzyme activities: transferase and glucosidase. A missense mutation causing isolated glucosidase deficiency has never been reported. In this study, we examined 23 patients of Turkish ancestry and identified a novel missense mutation p.R1147G with...
