Scope note

  • An autosomal recessive metabolic disorder due to a deficiency in expression of glycogen branching enzyme 1 (alpha-1,4-glucan-6-alpha-glucosyltransferase), resulting in an accumulation of abnormal GLYCOGEN with long outer branches. Clinical features are MUSCLE HYPOTONIA and CIRRHOSIS. Death from liver disease usually occurs before age 2.

  • 1991(1989); use GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE 1989-1990; for GLYCOGENOSIS 4 use GLYCOGENOSIS 1975-1988
