Abstract

We identified a novel mutation (867delA) in the glucose-6-phosphatase gene of two siblings with glycogen storage disease type Ia. Although both siblings share the same mutations, their phenotype regarding adult height and hepatomegaly differs. In glycogen storage disease type Ia, substantial heterogeneity in phenotype is observed. Till so far, no evidence for a clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been found. (C) 2000 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
