Identification, purification and genetic deficiencies of the glucose-6-phosphatase system transport proteins.
Hepatic microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase (Glc-6-P'ase) is a complex multicomponent system containing at least three transport proteins, in addition to the catalytic subunit and a Ca2+ binding regulatory protein. The transport proteins have been designated T1 the glucose-6-phosphate transport protein, T2 a phosphate/pyrophosphate transport protein and T3 a glucose transport protein. Diagnosis of the genetic deficiencies of these transport proteins at present requires a complex kinetic analysis of the Glc-6-P'ase system as a whole. Here we describe the progress to date in our attempts to identify, purify and clone each transport protein with the ultimate aim of isolating specific cDNA probes for each transport protein which can be used for the diagnosis of types 1b, 1c and the putative 1d glycogen storage diseases.
