gene GLYCTK, located on chromosome 3p21.1, 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, the homozygous mutation c.1448delT, p.Phe483SerfsX2 in the GLYCTK gene causes D-glyceric aciduria, but is not involved in nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) as a secondary phenomenon, the latter is caused by mutations in the AMT gene (EC 2.1.2.10), also harbored by the patient | Homo sapiens |

malfunction | a mutation in the GLYCTK gene encoding D-glycerate kinase causes glyceric aciduria. D-glyceric aciduria causes a blockage to the glycine cleavage enzyme system (GCS). The mutation S117L, a homozygous missense mutation in aminomethyltransferase (AMT, EC 2.1.2.10), causes nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH), but no evidence is found that D-glyceric aciduria would cause nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) as a secondary phenomenon. The AMT p.Arg320His mutation is included as the most common AMT mutation observed in NKH patients and when homozygous, is always observed in a severe phenotype | Homo sapiens |
