NCIt definition : Human G6PC1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 17q21.31 and is approximately
14 kb in length. This allele, which encodes glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit
1 protein, plays a role in the terminal step of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis.
Mutations in the gene are associated with glycogen storage disease 1A.;
