| 615042 | OMIM | Congenital disorder of glycosylation 1U (CDG1U) | A form of congenital disorder of glycosylation, a multisystem disorder caused by a defect in glycoprotein biosynthesis and characterized by under-glycosylated serum glycoproteins. Congenital disorders of glycosylation result in a wide variety of clinical features, such as defects in the nervous system development, psychomotor retardation, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, coagulation disorders, and immunodeficiency. The broad spectrum of features reflects the critical role of N-glycoproteins during embryonic development, differentiation, and maintenance of cell functions. Some CDG1U patients have dystrophic changes seen on muscle biopsy and reduced O-mannosyl glycans on alpha-dystroglycan. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
