A novel mutation and first report of dilated cardiomyopathy in ALG6-CDG (CDG-Ic): a case report

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are an expanding group of inherited metabolic diseases with multisystem involvement. ALG6-CDG (CDGIc) is an endoplasmatic reticulum defect in N-glycan assembly. It is usually milder than PMM2-CDG (CDG-Ia) and so is its natural course. It is characterized by psychomotor retardation, seizures, ataxia, and hypotonia. In contrast to PMM2-CDG (CDGIa), ther...

A broad spectrum of clinical presentations in congenital disorders of glycosylation I: a series of 26 cases.

INTRODUCTION Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), or carbohydrate deficient glycoprotein syndromes, form a new group of multisystem disorders characterised by defective glycoprotein biosynthesis, ascribed to various biochemical mechanisms. METHODS We report the clinical, biological, and molecular analysis of 26 CDG I patients, including 20 CDG Ia, two CDG Ib, one CDG Ic, and three CDG...

A Case of Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation Ia Presented with Recurrent Pericardial Effusion

BACKGROUND Inherited deficiency of phosophomannomutase (PMM2) causes a human glycosylation disorder known as Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation Ia. CASE PRESENTATION Herein, we describe a case of congenital disorder of glycosylation Ia, presented with recurrent pericardial effusion and unusual findings of inverted nipples, fat pads, reduced deep-tendon reflexes and multisystem involvement. ...

A novel cerebello-ocular syndrome with abnormal glycosylation due to abnormalities in dolichol metabolism.

Cerebellar hypoplasia and slowly progressive ophthalmological symptoms are common features in patients with congenital disorders of glycosylation type I. In a group of patients with congenital disorders of glycosylation type I with unknown aetiology, we have previously described a distinct phenotype with severe, early visual impairment and variable eye malformations, including optic nerve hypop...

Defect in N-glycosylation of proteins is tissue-dependent in congenital disorders of glycosylation Ia.

The biochemical hallmark of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) including type Ia is a defective N-glycosylation of serum glycoproteins. Hypoglycosylated forms of alpha1-antitrypsin have been detected by Western blot in serum from CDG Ia patients. In contrast we were not able to detect hypoglycosylation in alpha1-antitrypsin synthesized by fibroblasts, keratinocytes, enterocytes, and le...
