Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ PHKG2 is the hepatic and testis isoform of the gamma subunit of phosphorylase kinase. PHKG2 gene contains 10 exons and spans 9.5 kb and maps to chromosome 16p12.1-p11.2. Deficiency of PHK, a regulatory enzyme of glycogen metabolism, is responsible for 25% of all cases of glycogen storage disease and is genetically and clinically heterogeneous. Mutations in the PHKG2 gene lead to autosomal liver-specific PHK deficiency (glycogen storage disease IXc) and an increased risk of cirrhosis and at least 11 PHKG2 mutations have been identified to date._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Supplied in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150mM NaCl, 10mM glutathione, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.25mM DTT, 0.1mM PMSF, 25% glycerol._x000D_ Preparation Note_x000D_ after opening, aliquot into smaller quantities and store at -70 °C.
