Roles for Golgi Glycans in Oogenesis and Spermatogenesis
Glycosylation of proteins by N- and O-glycans or glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) mostly begins in the endoplasmic reticulum and is further orchestrated in the Golgi compartment via the action of >100 glycosyltransferases that reside in this complex ...

Diseases of glycosylation beyond classical congenital disorders of glycosylation [PDF]
Diseases of glycosylation are rare inherited disorders, which are often referred to as congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG). Several types of CDG have been described in the last decades, encompassing defects of nucleotide-sugar biosynthesis, nucleotide-sugar transporters, glycosyltransferases and vesicular transport.

Abstract Background G protein‐coupled receptors are a large and functionally diverse family of membrane receptors involved in a number of biological processes. Like other proteins, G protein‐coupled receptors need to be properly folded in order to traffic to the plasma membrane and interact with agonist.

Degree of Cajal-Retzius cell mislocalisation correlates with the severity of structural brain defects in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy [PDF]
The secondary dystroglycanopathies are characterized by the hypoglycosylation of alpha dystroglycan, and are associated with mutations in at least 18 genes that act on the glycosylation of this cell surface receptor rather than the Dag1 gene itself.

Hyperkinetic movement disorders in congenital disorders of glycosylation
Background and purposeCongenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) represent an increasing number of rare inherited metabolic diseases associated with abnormal glycan metabolism and disease onset in infancy or early childhood. Most CDG are multisystemic diseases mainly affecting the central nervous system. The aim of the current study was to investigate

Advances in the genetics of refractive errors: Contributions from the CREAM consortium
Abstract The Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopia (CREAM) was established in 2011, bringing together an international team of researchers studying more than 30 cohorts. Since its establishment, CREAM has played a pivotal role in research investigating the genetics of myopia and other refractive errors, serving as a key driver of progress in the ...

MPI‐CDG from a hepatic perspective: Report of two Egyptian cases and review of literature
MPI‐CDG is a rare congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) which presents with hepato‐gastrointestinal symptoms and hypoglycemia. We report on hepatic evaluation of two pediatric patients who presented to us with gastrointestinal symptoms.

Bleeding Disorders in Children With Genetic Diseases: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Aim The lack of data on bleeding risk assessment in children with genetic diseases is concerning given their increased care needs and risk of haemorrhagic complications compared to the general population. Identification of haemostatic disorders is crucial for implementing preventive measures and mitigating bleeding risk.

This study investigates four Chinese families with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA). Through next‐generation sequencing, we identified seven NTRK1 variants, including two novel mutations. Functional characterization of five identified missense and indel variants revealed distinct disruptions in the NGF‐TrkA pathway, ranging from ...
