Genes affected
PYGL (HGNC:9725): (glycogen phosphorylase L) This gene encodes a homodimeric protein that catalyses the cleavage of alpha-1,4-glucosidic bonds to release glucose-1-phosphate from liver glycogen stores. This protein switches from inactive phosphorylase B to active phosphorylase A by phosphorylation of serine residue 15. Activity of this enzyme is further regulated by multiple allosteric effectors and hormonal controls. Humans have three glycogen phosphorylase genes that encode distinct isozymes that are primarily expressed in liver, brain and muscle, respectively. The liver isozyme serves the glycemic demands of the body in general while the brain and muscle isozymes supply just those tissues. In glycogen storage disease type VI, also known as Hers disease, mutations in liver glycogen phosphorylase inhibit the conversion of glycogen to glucose and results in moderate hypoglycemia, mild ketosis, growth retardation and hepatomegaly. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

Glycogen storage disease, type VI Pathogenic:1Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 20, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg491 amino acid residue in PYGL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 33763395). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt PYGL protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21329). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of glycogen storage disease (PMID: 17705025; Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs113993980, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 491 of the PYGL protein (p.Arg491Cys). -
