Description

The AGL gene (amylo-alpha-1, 6-glucosidase, 4-alpha-glucanotransferase) [HGNC Gene ID:321] is located on chromosome 1p21. This gene encodes the glycogen debrancher enzyme which is involved in glycogen degradation. This enzyme has two independent catalytic activities which occur at different sites on the protein: a 4-alpha-glucotransferase activity and a amylo-1,6-glucosidase activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with glycogen storage disease although a wide range of enzymatic and clinical variability occurs which may be due to tissue-specific alternative splicing. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] [NCBI Gene ID:178] Source: National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene
