glucogenosis tipo 4
Scope note: Trastorno autosómico recesivo producido por déficit en la expresión de la enzima ramificante (alfa-1,4-glucano-6-alfa-glucosiltransferasa), que da lugar a acumulación de GLUCÓGENO anormal con largas ramificaciones. Las características clínicas son HIPOTONÍA MUSCULAR y CIRROSIS. La muerte por enfermedad hepática suele producirse antes de los 2 años de edad.

Scope note: An autosomal recessive metabolic disorder due to a deficiency in expression of glycogen branching enzyme 1 (alpha-1,4-glucan-6-alpha-glucosyltransferase), resulting in an accumulation of abnormal GLYCOGEN with long outer branches. Clinical features are MUSCLE HYPOTONIA and CIRRHOSIS. Death from liver disease usually occurs before age 2.
