General Information of Disease (ID: DISIK17Y)

Disease Name ALG8-congenital disorder of glycosylation
Synonyms
CDG Ih; ALG8-CDG (CDG-Ih); congenital disorder of glycosylation, type Ih; CDG 1H; ALG8-congenital disorder of glycosylation; glucosyltransferase 2 deficiency; congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ih; carbohydrate deficient glycoprotein syndrome type Ih; CDG1H; ALG8-CDG; congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1h; CDG syndrome type Ih; CDG-Ih
Definition
A form of congenital disorders of N-linked glycosylation that is characterized by gastrointestinal symptoms (diarrhea, vomiting, feeding problems with failure to thrive, protein-losing enteropathy), edema and ascites (including hydrops fetalis), hepatomegaly, renal tubulopathy, coagulation anomalies due to thrombocytopenia, brain involvement (psychomotor delay, seizures, ataxia), facial dysmorphism (low-set ears and retrognathia), pes equinovarus, and muscular hypotonia. Cataracts may also be observed. Prognosis is usually poor. The disease is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene ALG8 (11q14.1), resulting in a block in the initial step of protein glycosylation.
