Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (CDG) type Ic is caused by mutations in ALG6. This gene encodes an α1,3 glucosyltransferase used for synthesis of the lipid linked oligosaccharide (LLO) precursor of the protein N -glycosylation pathway. CDG-Ic patients have moderate to severe psychomotor retarda
## Abstract Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of metabolic disorders with multisystemic involvement characterized by abnormalities in the synthesis of N‐linked oligosaccharides. The most common form, CDG‐Ia, resulting from mutations in the gene encoding the enzyme phosphomanno
