gene AMT, located on chromosome 3p21.3, DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis. The AMT gene is located on chromosome 3p21.3 and the GLYCTK gene on 3p21.1. The possibility of a microdeletion is considered given the homozygosity for a mutation in both genes in a non-consanguineous family, but a comparative microarray does not identify a copy number variation in any exon of either gene | Homo sapiens |

F483S | naturally occuring mutation that causes D-glyceric aciduria | Homo sapiens |
R320H | naturally occuring mutation that causes D-glyceric aciduria, the mutant enzyme shows 13% activity compared to wild-type. The expression of the p.Arg320Hisu mutant shows a low residual enzyme activity of the glycine cleavage enzyme similar to that of the mock control. The p.Arg320His is included as the most common AMT mutation observed in NKH patients and when homozygous, is always observed in a severe phenotype | Homo sapiens |
S117L | naturally occuring mutation, a very rare homozygous missense mutation in AMT c.350CNT, that causes D-glyceric aciduria, but no evidence is found that D-glyceric aciduria would cause nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) as a secondary phenomenon. The mutant enzyme shows 9% activity compared to wild-type. The expression of the p.Ser117Leu mutant shows a low residual enzyme activity of the glycine cleavage enzyme similar to that of the mock control | Homo sapiens |

malfunction | mutations S117L and R320H cause nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH). Analysis of mutations in the GLYCTK gene (encoding D-glycerate kinase, EC 2.7.1.165) causing glyceric aciduria. D-glyceric aciduria causes a blockage to the glycine cleavage enzyme system (GCS). The mutation S117L, a homozygous missense mutation in AMT c.350CNT, causes NKH, but no evidence is found that D-glyceric aciduria would cause nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) as a secondary phenomenon. The p.Arg320His is included as the most common AMT mutation observed in NKH patients and when homozygous, is always observed in a severe phenotype | Homo sapiens |
