Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase deficiency

Definition

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase deficiency (PCKD) is a rare disorder of gluconeogenesis presenting with recurrent hypoglycemia, hepatic dysfunction, and lactic acidosis. There are two discrete subcellular isoforms of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK): cytosolic PCK (encoded by PCK1) and mitochondrial PCK (encoded by PCK2). Mutations in PCK1 have been detected in affected individuals.
