Analysis of multiple mutations in the hALG6 gene in a patient with congenital disorder of glycosylation Ic.

Abstract excerpt

Congenital disorder of glycosylation Ic is caused by mutations in the hALG6 gene that encodes an alpha-1,3 glucosyltransferase. This enzyme is required for the addition of the first glucose residue to the lipid-linked oligosaccharide precursor for N-linked glycosylation. Here we describe the biochemical and molecular analysis of a patient with three mutations in the hALG6 gene. The maternal allele has an intronic...
