  • Patent number: 11377643
    Abstract: This invention provides a range of translatable polynucleotide and oligomer molecules for expressing a human amylo-alpha-1, 6-glucosidase, 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (AGL), or a fragment thereof having AGL activity. The polynucleotide and oligomer molecules are expressible to provide the human AGL or a fragment thereof having AGL activity. The molecules can be used as active agents to express an active polypeptide or protein in cells or subjects. The agents can be used in methods for ameliorating, preventing, delaying onset, or treating a disease or condition associated with reduced activity of amylo-alpha-1, 6-glucosidase, 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (AGL) in a subject.
