Description : Glycogen storage disease type IX is a metabolic disorder resulting from a deficiency
of hepatic phosphorylase kinase, a hexadecameric enzyme comprising 4 copies each of
4 unique subunits encoded by 4 different genes: alpha (PHKA2), beta (PHKB; 172490),
gamma (PHKG2; 172471), and delta (CALM1; 114180). Mutations within the PHKA2, PHKB,
and PHKG2 genes result in GSD9a, GSD9b (261750), and GSD9c (613027), respectively.
GSD9a is an X-linked recessive disorder, whereas the others are autosomal recessive.
See also X-linked muscle PHK deficiency (GSD9D; 300559), caused by mutation in the
gene encoding the muscle-specific alpha PHK subunit (PHKA1; 311870). GSD IXa has been
further divided into types IXa1 (GSD9A1), with no PHK activity in liver or erythrocytes,
and IXa2 (GSD9A2), with no PHK in liver, but normal activity in erythrocytes. The
clinical presentation of both subtypes is the same, and both are caused by mutations
in the PHKA2 gene. However, mutations that result in IXa2 are either missense or small
in-frame deletions or insertions enabling residual enzyme expression in erythrocytes
(Keating et al., 1985; Hendrickx et al., 1994; Beauchamp et al., 2007).;
Inheritance : X-linked recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the liver phosphorylase alpha-2 subunit gene (PHKA2, 306000.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Liver phosphorylase kinase (PHK) deficiency; Phosphorylase kinase normal in muscle; Variable hypoglycemia; Mild elevation of transaminases; Mild elevation of cholesterol; Mild elevation of triglycerides; Fasting ketosis;
