| Chromosomal Location |
17q25.2-q25.3 |
| Allelic Variant 1 |
606800.0015; GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE TYPE II |
| Identified Mutation |
ARG854TER; Becker et al. [Am. J. Hum. Genet. 62: 991-994 (1998)] found a high frequency of the arg854-to-ter mutation of the GAA gene in compound heterozygous or homozygous state in cases of glycogen storage disease II (232300) in various African populations and in African-American patients. |

| Remarks |
Clinically affected; onset of symptoms at 3.5 months of age; diagnosis at 4 ½ months of age; died at 4 ½ months of age; difficulty breathing; cough; poor appetite and failure to thrive (<10th percentile head circumference, 25th percentile height and weight) ; hypotonia (unable to hold head or roll over); hyperreflexia; cardiomyopathy (echocardiogram revealed concentric hypertrophy of the posterior wall of the left ventricle and septum; no left ventricular outlet obstruction); 1% of normal alpha-D-glucosidase activity; cross-reactive immunological material (CRIM)-negative status confirmed by Western blot and GAA sequencing analyses (homozygous for p.Arg854X)(PMID:24044919); treatments include Captopril, Lasix, and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy; family history: parents are first cousins; donor subject had three unaffected siblings and one affected sibling (died at 4 months of age; cardiomegaly; cystic hygroma; elevated lactate, pyruvate and ammonia; muscle biopsy showed lysosomal glycogen inclusion consistent with Pompe disease). |
