Sixteen different mutations have been identified to date in the gene which encodes hepatic glycogen synthase, resulting in reduction of glycogen storage in the liver.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Case Presentation<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Biochemical evaluation as well as direct sequencing of exons and exon-intron boundary regions of the <jats:italic>GYS2<\/jats:italic> gene were performed in a patient presenting fasting hypoglycemia and postprandial hyperglycemia and her parents. The patient was found to be compound heterozygous for one previously reported nonsense mutation (c.736 C&gt;T; R243X) and a novel frameshift mutation (966_967delGA\/insC) which introduces a stop codon 21 aminoacids downstream from the site of the mutation that presumably leads to loss of 51% of the COOH-terminal part of the protein. The glycemia and lactatemia of the parents after an oral glucose tolerance test were evaluated to investigate a possible impact of the carrier status on the metabolic profile. The mother, who presented a positive family history of type 2 diabetes, was classified as glucose intolerant and the father, who did not exhibit metabolic changes after the glucose overload, had an antecedent history of hypoglycemia after moderate alcohol ingestion.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The current results expand the spectrum of known mutations in <jats:italic>GYS2<\/jats:italic> and suggest that haploinsufficiency could explain metabolic abnormalities in heterozygous carriers in presence of predisposing conditions.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2350-11-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,1,5]],"date-time":"2010-01-05T19:15:30Z","timestamp":1262718930000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["A novel mutation in the glycogen synthase 2 gene in a child with glycogen storage disease type 0"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Ana Priscila","family":"Soggia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria L\u00facia","family":"Correa-Giannella","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Angela Henriques","family":"Fortes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ana Mercedes Cavaleiro","family":"Luna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Adelaide Albergaria","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,1,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"564_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"507","DOI":"10.1172\/JCI2890","volume":"102","author":"M Orho","year":"1998","unstructured":"Orho M, Bosshard NU, Buist NR, Gitzelmann R, Aynsley-Green A, Blumel P, Gannon MC, Nuttall FQ, Groop LC: Mutations in the liver glycogen synthase gene in children with hypoglycemia due to glycogen storage disease type 0.
