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.
The reason why A1C, glycated hemoglobin, is an indicator of blood sugar levels is that some of the glucose in the blood binds to hemoglobin, the protein found in red blood cells and responsible for transporting oxygen around the circulation.2.. The particular type of hemoglobin that glucose attaches to is hemoglobin A, and the combined result is call glycated hemoglobin. As blood glucose levels rise, more glycated hemoglobin forms, and it persists for the lifespan of red blood cells, about four months.
