Overview
Causes
- Glycogen storage disease type 1 is an autosomal recessive disorder.[1]
- Glycogen storage disease type 1a is caused by the deficiency of the glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme. The gene for the glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme is located on chromosome 17q21.
- Glycogen storage disease type 1b is caused by a defect in the microsomal glucose-6-phosphate transporter. The gene for the glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme is located on chromosome 11q23.
