General description
The gene PYGL (phosphorylase, glycogen, liver) is mapped to human chromosome 14q21-q22.
Immunogen
Glycogen phosphorylase, liver form recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-PYGL antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions
PYGL is also known as GSD6 (i.e. Glycogen storage disease type VI (GSD VI)). Glycogen storage disease (GSD) type VI is a disorder of glycogenolysis that is caused by deficiency of hepatic glycogen phosphorylase resulting in a reduced ability to mobilize glucose from glycogen. It is characterized in the untreated child by hepatomegaly, growth retardation, ketotic hypoglycemia after an overnight fast, and mild hypoglycemia after prolonged fasting (e.g., during an illness). It is usually a relatively mild disorder seen in infancy and childhood. The GSD6 disorder is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Several types of glycogen storage disease attributable to a deficiency of phosphorylase or phosphorylase kinase have been described. These diseases have been divided according to clinical symptoms, mode of inheritance, and affected tissue. However, this classification is questionable, as the
