Abstract excerpt
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are an expanding group of inherited disorders caused by defects in the N- or O-Glycosylation of proteins and lipids. Several CDG subtypes have been described so far, including CDG type Ih which is caused by a deficiency of the dolichyl-P-Glc:Glc(1)Man(9)GlcNAc(2)-PP-dolichyl alpha1,3-glucosyltransferase (hALG8). The defect leads to an accumulation of...
