Abstract excerpt
Tn polyagglutination results from inactivating mutations in C1GALT1C1, an X-borne gene encoding a core 1 beta3-galactosyltransferase-specific molecular chaperone (cosmc) required for the functioning of T-synthase (beta 1,3-galactosyltransferase), a glycosyltransferase essential for the correct biosynthesis of O-glycans. This study found novel inactivating mutations (Glu152Lys, Ser193Pro and Met1Ile) in the coding...
