Summaries for AGL Gene

Entrez Gene Summary for AGL Gene

  • This gene encodes the glycogen debrancher enzyme which is involved in glycogen degradation. This enzyme has two independent catalytic activities which occur at different sites on the protein: a 4-alpha-glucotransferase activity and a amylo-1,6-glucosidase activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with glycogen storage disease although a wide range of enzymatic and clinical variability occurs which may be due to tissue-specific alternative splicing. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GeneCards Summary for AGL Gene

AGL (Amylo-Alpha-1, 6-Glucosidase, 4-Alpha-Glucanotransferase) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with AGL include Glycogen Storage Disease Iii and Glycogen Storage Disease Iv. Among its related pathways are Glycosaminoglycan metabolism and Innate Immune System. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include carbohydrate binding and polysaccharide binding.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for AGL Gene

  • Multifunctional enzyme acting as 1,4-alpha-D-glucan:1,4-alpha-D-glucan 4-alpha-D-glycosyltransferase and amylo-1,6-glucosidase in glycogen degradation.

Tocris Summary for AGL Gene

  • Glycosylases are a group of enzymes that includes glucosidases, mannosidases and heparanases. There are two glucosidase subtypes, both found in the gut. They hydrolyze terminal (1,4)alpha-glucosidic linkages and (1,6)beta-glucosidic linkages, liberating alpha-glucose and beta-glucose.

  • Glycogen storage disease 3 (GSD3) [MIM:232400]: A metabolic disorder associated with an accumulation of abnormal glycogen with short outer chains. It is clinically characterized by hepatomegaly, hypoglycemia, short stature, and variable myopathy. Glycogen storage disease type 3 includes different forms: GSD type 3A patients lack glycogen debrancher enzyme activity in both liver and muscle, while GSD type 3B patients are enzyme-deficient in liver only. In rare cases, selective loss of only 1 of the 2 debranching activities, glucosidase or transferase, results in GSD type 3C or type 3D, respectively. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:10571954, ECO:0000269 PubMed:17908927}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
