Phosphofructokinase deficiency, also known as Glycogen storage disease type VII or Tarui's disease,[1][2] is metabolic disorder with autosomal recessive inheritance.
It may affect humans as well as other mammals (especially dogs).[3] In humans it is the least common type of glycogen storage disease.

[edit] Pathophysiology
In this condition, a deficiency of the M subunit of the phosphofructokinase enzyme impairs the ability of cells such as erythrocytes and rhabdomyocytes to use carbohydrates (such as glucose) for energy.
[edit] Presentation
The disease presents with exercise-induced muscle cramps and weakness (sometimes rhabdomyolysis), as well as with haemolytic anaemia causing dark urine a few hours later.
