An AciI polymorphism in the 3′ untranslated region of the human phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) gene [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Genetics, 1999
We found an AciI polymorphism in the 3' untranslated region of the phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) gene located at 16p13. A G-to-C transition at nucleotide position 96 bp downstream from the PMM2 stop codon was detected in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products after AciI digestion.

Spontaneous improvement of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin in PMM2-CDG without mannose observed in CDG natural history study

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
A recent report on long-term dietary mannose supplementation in phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) claimed improved glycosylation and called for double-blind randomized study of the dietary supplement in PMM2-CDG patients.

Founder mutation in the PMM2 promotor causes hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia/polycystic kidney disease (HIPKD)

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background Polycystic kidney disease with hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HIPKD) is a recently described disease caused by a single nucleotide variant, c.‐167G>T, in the promoter region of PMM2 (encoding phosphomannomutase 2), either in homozygosity or ...

Platelet Membrane Glycoprofiling in a PMM2-CDG Patient

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2021
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are metabolic hereditary diseases caused by defects in the synthesis of glycoconjugates. CDG have been described in sugar-nucleotide biosynthesis and transporter, glycosyltransferases, vesicular transport, as ...

Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia Due to PMM2 Mutation in Two Siblings with Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease

open access: yesPediatric Reports, 2022
Background: Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH) is an important cause of persistent hypoglycemia in newborns and infants. Recently, PMM2 (phosphomannomutase 2) mutation has been associated with HH, especially in conjunction with polycystic kidney disease (

Anthropometric Phenotype of Patients with PMM2-CDG

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Background: Growth failure is commonly reported in children with PMM2-CDG. The aim of the study was to delineate the longitudinal anthropometric phenotype of patients with PMM2-CDG and attempt to find some correlations between the genotype and ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Clinical and molecular diagnosis of non‐phosphomannomutase 2 N‐linked congenital disorders of glycosylation in Spain [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Genetics, 2019
The congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are defects in glycoprotein and glycolipid glycan synthesis and attachment. They affect multiple organ/systems, but non‐specific symptoms render the diagnosis of the different CDG very challenging.

Fatal outcome after heart surgery in PMM2-CDG due to a rare homozygous gene variant with double effects

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2020
Variants in Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) lead to PMM2-CDG, the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). We here describe the disease course of a ten-month old patient who presented with the classical PMM2-CDG symptoms as cerebellar ...
