Abstract excerpt
Glycogen storage disease (GSD) 1b is the deficiency of endoplasmic reticulum glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) transport. We here report the structure of the gene encoding a protein likely to be responsible for G6P transport, and its mapping to human chromosome 11q23.3. The gene is composed of nine exons spanning a genomic region of approximately 4 kb. Primers based on the genomic sequence were used in single strand...
