[Congenital disorders of glycosylation].

Abstract excerpt

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) is a fast growing group of autosomal recessive inherited diseases caused by defects in glycosylation. The biosynthesis of the glycans is a pathways which occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex thanks to highly specific enzymes: glycosidases and glycosyltransferases. The sequential addition of monosaccharides needs precursors which are nucleotide sugars or...
