Phosphorylase kinase (PhK) deficiency is the underlying cause of variable clinical symptoms depending on the tissues involved. Until today, only a few cases of myopathy associated with muscle PhK deficiency caused by a mutation in the gene encoding the alpha subunit of phosphorylase kinase (PHKA1) have been reported. We describe a male patient with myopathy and absent muscle PhK activity caused by a frameshift mutation in the gene encoding the alpha subunit of PhK on chromosome Xq12-q13.
磷酸化酶激酶(PhK)缺乏是取决于受累组织的多种临床症状的根本原因。迄今为止,仅有少数由磷酸化酶激酶α亚基(PHKA1)编码基因突变导致的与肌肉PhK缺乏相关的肌病病例报道。我们描述了一名男性患者,其患有肌病且肌肉PhK活性缺失,这是由位于Xq12 - q13染色体上的PhKα亚基编码基因中的移码突变引起的。
