摘要:
We identified a novel missense mutation in the myophosphorylase gene (PYGM) in a Spanish patient with McArdle's disease. This homozygous T-to-C transition results in the replacement of a highly conserved tryptophan at amino acid position (aa) 797 with an arginine in the C-terminal domain of the PYGM protein. The lack of enzyme activity in the proband's muscle is consistent with a crucial role of the aa 797 in the normal function of the PYGM protein. Our data further expand the genetic heterogeneity in patients with McArdle's disease. (C) 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
