Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of rare metabolic diseases, due to impaired protein and lipid glycosylation. In the present study, exome sequencing was used to identify MAN1B1 as the culprit gene in an unsolved CDG-II patient. Subsequently, 6 additional cases with MAN1B1-CDG were found. All individuals presented slight facial dysmorphism, psychomotor retardation and truncal obesity. Generally, MAN1B1 is believed to be an ER resident alpha-1,2-mannosidase acting as a key factor in glycoprotein quality control by targeting misfolded proteins for ER-associated degradation (ERAD). However, recent studies indicated a Golgi localization of the endogenous MAN1B1, suggesting a more complex role for MAN1B1 in quality control. We were able to confirm that MAN1B1 is indeed localized to the Golgi complex instead of the ER. Furthermore, we observed an altered Golgi morphology in all patients' cells, with marked dilatation and fragmentation. We hypothesize that part of the phenotype is associated to this Golgi disruption. In conclusion, we linked mutations in MAN1B1 to a Golgi glycosylation disorder. Additionally, our results support the recent findings on MAN1B1 localization. However, more work is needed to pinpoint the exact function of MAN1B1 in glycoprotein quality control, and to understand the pathophysiology of its deficiency.

Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), inherited metabolic diseases caused by defects in glycosylation, are characterized by a high frequency of intellectual disability (ID) and various clinical manifestations. Two siblings with ID, dysmorphic features, and epilepsy were examined using mass spectrometry of serum transferrin, which revealed a CDG type 2 pattern. Whole-exome sequencing showed that both patients were homozygous for a novel pathogenic variant of MAN1B1 (NM_016219.4:c.1837del) inherited from their healthy parents. We conducted a HPLC analysis of sialylated N-linked glycans released from total plasma proteins and characterized the α1,2-mannosidase I activity of the lymphocyte microsome fraction. The accumulation of monosialoglycans was observed in MAN1B1-deficient patients, indicating N-glycan-processing defects. The enzymatic activity of MAN1B1 was compromised in patient-derived lymphocytes. The present patients exhibited unique manifestations including early-onset epileptic encephalopathy and cerebral infarction. They also showed coagulation abnormalities and hypertransaminasemia. Neither sibling had truncal obesity, which is one of the characteristic features of MAN1B1-CDG.

Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) constitute an ever-growing group of genetic diseases affecting the glycosylation of proteins. CDG individuals usually present with severe multisystem disorders. MAN1B1-CDG is a CDG with nonspecific clinical symptoms such as intellectual deficiency and developmental delay. Although up to 40 affected individuals were described so far, its final diagnosis is not straightforward using common biochemical methods due to the trace-level accumulation of defective glycan structures. In this study, we present three unreported MAN1B1-CDG individuals and propose a decision tree to reach diagnosis using a panel of techniques ranging from exome sequencing to gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. The occurrence of MAN1B1-CDG in patients showing unexplained intellectual disability and development delay, as well as a particular transferrin glycosylation profile, can be ascertained notably using matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization - time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry analysis of endo-β-acetylglucosaminidase H-released serum N-glycans. In addition to reporting new pathogenic variants and additional clinical signs such as hypersialorrhea, we highlight particular biochemical features of MAN1B1-CDG with potential glycoprotein-specific glycosylation defects.

Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of more than 130 inborn errors of metabolism affecting N-linked, O-linked protein and lipid-linked glycosylation. The phenotype in CDG patients includes frequent liver involvement, especially the disorders belonging to the N-linked protein glycosylation group. There are only a few treatable CDG. Mannose-Phosphate Isomerase (MPI)-CDG was the first treatable CDG by high dose mannose supplements. Recently, with the successful use of d-galactose in Phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1)-CDG, other CDG types have been trialed on galactose and with an increasing number of potential nutritional therapies. Current mini review focuses on therapies in glycosylation disorders affecting liver function and dietary intervention in general in N-linked glycosylation disorders. We also emphasize now the importance of early screening for CDG in patients with mild hepatopathy but also in cholestasis.

Project description:We have used genome-wide genotyping to identify an overlapping homozygosity-by-descent locus on chromosome 9q34.3 (MRT15) in four consanguineous families affected by nonsyndromic autosomal-recessive intellectual disability (NS-ARID) and one in which the patients show additional clinical features. Four of the families are from Pakistan, and one is from Iran. Using a combination of next-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing, we have identified mutations in the gene MAN1B1, encoding a mannosyl oligosaccharide, alpha 1,2-mannosidase. In one Pakistani family, MR43, a homozygous nonsense mutation (RefSeq number NM_016219.3: c.1418G>A [p.Trp473*]), segregated with intellectual disability and additional dysmorphic features. We also identified the missense mutation c. 1189G>A (p.Glu397Lys; RefSeq number NM_016219.3), which segregates with NS-ARID in three families who come from the same village and probably have shared inheritance. In the Iranian family, the missense mutation c.1000C>T (p.Arg334Cys; RefSeq number NM_016219.3) also segregates with NS-ARID. Both missense mutations are at amino acid residues that are conserved across the animal kingdom, and they either reduce k(cat) by ?1300-fold or disrupt stable protein expression in mammalian cells. MAN1B1 is one of the few NS-ARID genes with an elevated mutation frequency in patients with NS-ARID from different populations.

Project description:Disruption of N-linked glycosylation has a broad impact on proper glycosylation of nascent glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum, which affect multiple signalling pathways( by changing the stability of membrane proteins or the signalling ability of membrane receptors) and may be responsible of the fibrotic stage associated to CDG type-I. We used microarrays to characterize the global changes in gene expression in three distinct groups of CDG-I patients and we identified a common perturbation in the expression of genes encoding for proteins involved in the stress as well as in the fibrotic responses.

Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous metabolic disorders. Over 150 CDG types have been described. Most CDG types are ultrarare disorders. CDG types affecting N-glycosylation are the most common type of CDG with emerging therapeutic possibilities. This review is an update on the available therapies for disorders affecting the N-linked glycosylation pathway. In the first part of the review, we highlight the clinical presentation, general principles of management, and disease-specific therapies for N-linked glycosylation CDG types, organized by organ system. The second part of the review focuses on the therapeutic strategies currently available and under development. We summarize the successful (pre-) clinical application of nutritional therapies, transplantation, activated sugars, gene therapy, and pharmacological chaperones and outline the anticipated expansion of the therapeutic possibilities in CDG. We aim to provide a comprehensive update on the treatable aspects of CDG types involving N-linked glycosylation, with particular emphasis on disease-specific treatment options for the involved organ systems; call for natural history studies; and present current and future therapeutic strategies for CDG.

Project description:Classical galactosaemia is a rare disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) deficiency (EC 2.7.7.12). The disease is life threatening if left untreated in neonates and the only available treatment option is a long-term galactose restricted diet. While this is lifesaving in the neonate, complications persist in treated individuals, and the cause of these, despite early initiation of treatment, and shared GALT genotypes remain poorly understood. Systemic abnormal glycosylation has been proposed to contribute substantially to the ongoing pathophysiology. The gross N-glycosylation assembly defects observed in the untreated neonate correct over time with treatment. However, N-glycosylation processing defects persist in treated children and adults.Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a large group of over 100 inherited disorders affecting largely N- and O-glycosylation.In this review, we compare the clinical features observed in galactosaemia with a number of predominant CDG conditions.We also summarize the N-glycosylation abnormalities, which we have described in galactosaemia adult and paediatric patients, using an automated high-throughput HILIC-UPLC analysis of galactose incorporation into serum IgG with analysis of the corresponding N-glycan gene expression patterns and the affected pathways.

Project description:Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are an expanding group of genetic diseases affecting protein and lipid glycosylation. These disorders have a variable presentation and are individually rare. DPAGT1-CDG is a protein N-glycosylation disorder with epilepsy, development delay, severe hypotonia, and dysmorphy, reported in a single patient. Here we present the second family with DPAGT1-CDG identified through homozygosity mapping in a large consanguineous family with 18 affected infants. The patients had severe hypotonia, global developmental delay, seizures, and microcephaly but no dysmorphy. In the index case, the brain MRI revealed delayed myelination, and there was fiber type disproportion on muscle biopsy. Homozygosity mapping identified a large block of homozygosity on chromosome 11p15.5-q25 where two known CDG-I causing genes, ALG9 and DPAGT1, are located. Sequencing ALG9 did not reveal any mutations while analysis of DPAGT1 identified a novel homozygous mutation c.902G>A (p.R301H) in two affected infants. The disorder was fatal in all affected cases and mostly in early infancy.

Project description:AIMS: To delineate the pattern of growth in prepubertal children with congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ia (CDG-Ia) in order to identify critical period(s) and possible cause(s) of growth failure. METHODS: Longitudinal measurements of weight, length/height, and head circumference from birth to 10 years of age in 25 CDG-Ia patients with the R141H/F119L PMM2 genotype were analysed. The data and derived body mass indices (BMI) were compared with standards and expressed as standard deviation scores (SDS). A linear mixed effects model was fitted to each set of data, and mean curves were estimated. RESULTS: The mean weight SDS decreased from -0.3 at birth to -3.0 at 7 months of age and remained low or increased slightly. The mean length SDS decreased from zero at birth to -2.4 at 7 months of age followed by a slight increase to a maximum of -1.8 SDS at the end of the second year of life. After age 2 the mean length/height SDS decreased again. The mean BMI SDS at birth was -0.7 and declined to a minimum of -2.8 at the end of the second year of life followed by a gradual increase. The mean head circumference SDS declined gradually from 0 at 3 months of age to -1.9 at age 5. CONCLUSION: CDG-Ia patients with the R141H/F119L genotype have normal fetal growth and an immediate postnatal onset of severe growth failure. A notable decline in weight end length SDS takes place during the first seven months of life with no prepubertal catch up.
