Mutations in N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1), which deglycosylates misfolded glycoproteins for degradation, can cause NGLY1 deficiency in patients and their abnormal fetal development in multiple organs, including microcephaly and other neurological disorders ...

Clinical and Molecular Features of Patients With Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation in Japan. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by defects in various steps of the glycosylation pathway. There are over 200 known human glycosylation‐related disorders. Many of these defects lead to multisystemic manifestations, commonly involving the central nervous system, with symptoms ranging from ...

Whole-exome sequencing in undiagnosed genetic diseases: interpreting 119 trios [PDF]
Purpose: Despite the recognized clinical value of exome-based diagnostics, methods for comprehensive genomic interpretation remain immature. Diagnoses are based on known or presumed pathogenic variants in genes already associated with a similar phenotype.

Knowledge-based approaches to drug discovery for rare diseases [PDF]
The conventional drug discovery pipeline has proven to be unsustainable for rare diseases. Herein, we discuss recent advances in biomedical knowledge mining applied to discovering therapeutics for rare diseases. We summarize current chemogenomics data of

NGLY1 Deficiency Affects Glycosaminoglycan Biosynthesis and Wnt Signaling Pathway in Mice [PDF]
Individuals affected by NGLY1 Deficiency cannot properly deglycosylate and recycle certain proteins. Even though less than 100 people worldwide have been diagnosed with this rare autosomal recessive condition, thousands are affected by similar ...

Loss of N-Glycanase 1 Alters Transcriptional and Translational Regulation in K562 Cell Lines
N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) deficiency is an ultra-rare, complex and devastating neuromuscular disease. Patients display multi-organ symptoms including developmental delays, movement disorders, seizures, constipation and lack of tear production.

Sugar coating autophagy: exploring the links between the inhibition of NGLY1 (N-glycanase 1) and autophagy induction [PDF]
The cytosolic enzyme NGLY1 (N-glycanase 1) is a central mediator of glycoprotein catabolism. The enzyme acts to cleave N-linked glycans from modified substrate asparagine residues prior to degradation of misfolded proteins by the proteasome, playing a ...

The Biochemical Basis of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation [PDF]
The enzyme peptide: N-glycanase (EC 3.5.1.52) is an endoglycosidase which cleaves N-linked glycans from incorrectly folded glycoproteins exported from the endoplasmic reticulum during ER-associated degradation (ERAD).

Audiologic follow up results of child with NGLY1 deficiency
NGLY1 deficiency is a rare in which affected individuals show developmental delay/intellectual disability in the mild to profound range, epilepsy, auditory neuropathy, abnormal liver function, complex hyperkinetic movement disorder and poor growth. Here, we present the follow-up results of hearing status in a patient with NGLY1 deficiency.
