Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GSD type 1a is caused by mutations in glucose 6-phosphatase, while other forms of GSD type I, such as type 1b, are associated with mutations in the G6P transporter (T1) and other related transporters (T3), which are essential for the proper functioning of glucose 6-phosphatase.
