Glycine encephalopathy is sometimes referred to as nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH), as a reference to the biochemical findings seen in patients with the disorder, and to distinguish it from the disorders that cause ketotic hyperglycinemia (seen in propionic acidemia and several other inherited metabolic disorders).lycine encephalopathy has an estimated incidence of 1 in 60,000, making it the second most common disorder of amino acid metabolism, after phenylketonuria. It is caused by a defect in the glycine cleavage system (GCS), which is made up of four protein subunits.
Glycine is a colourless, sweet-tasting crystalline solid. It is unique among the proteinogenic amino acids in that it is achiral. It can fit into hydrophilic or hydrophobic environments, due to its minimal side chain of only one hydrogen atom.ly redirects here. For the unit of measurement, see light-year. For the plant genus, see glycine (plant) . Glycine (abbreviated as Gly or G) is the smallest of the 20 amino acids commonly found in proteins, and indeed is the smallest possible (having a hydrogen substituent as its side-chain).
