Key words congenital disorder of glycosylation, MOGS, whole exome sequencing. Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) are caused by deficient protein and lipid glycosylation. 1 Most CDGs are multisystem disorders. Mannosyl-oligosaccharide glucosidase congenital disorder of glycosylation (MOGS-CDG) is caused by recessive mutations in the mannosyl-oligosaccharide glucosidase I gene. Only six patients (from four families) have a d b c Fig. 1 (a) Clinical picture of the patient. (b) Echocardiogram of our patient revealed marked decrease in cardiac function. (c) Brain MRI scan, sagittal T1-weighted sequence displaying partial agenesis of the corpus callosum. (arrow) (d) Electropherogram shows novel compound heterozygous mutations in MOGS. Patient had compound heterozygous mutations: c.1483C>T nonsense mutation from the father and c.2255G>A missense mutation from the mother. (red arrows)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
