Abstract excerpt
Defects in the evolutionarily conserved protein-glycosylation machinery during embryonic development are often fatal. Consequently, congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) in human are rare. We modelled a putative hypomorphic mutation described in an alpha-1,3/1,6-mannosyltransferase (ALG2) index patient (ALG2-CDG) to address the developmental consequences in the teleost medaka (Oryzias latipes). We observed...
