In Silico Analysis of Phosphomannomutase-2 Dimer Interface Stability and Heterodimerization with Phosphomannomutase-1 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules
Phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) catalyzes the interconversion of mannose-6-phosphate and mannose-1-phosphate, a key step in the biosynthesis of GDP-mannose for N-glycosylation. Its deficiency is the most common cause of congenital disorders of glycosylation (

The clinical spectrum of phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (CDG-Ia)

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2009
Congenital disorders of glycosylation are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders resulting from abnormal glycosylation of various glycoconjugates. The first description of congenital disorders of glycosylation was published in the early 80s and once screening tests for glycosylation disorders (CDGs) became readily available, CDG ...

Targeted metabolomic evaluation of peripheral blood mononucleated cells from patients with PMM2-CDG [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Phosphomannomutase-2 (PMM2) deficiency represents the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Currently, little is known about cell metabolic alterations occurring in these patients.

Lipo-Glc-1,6-P<sub>2</sub>: A Bioprecursor Prodrug for Phosphomannomutase-2 Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation. [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life
ABSTRACT Phosphomannomutase‐2 (PMM2) deficiency leads to the prominent Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (CDG), a rare disease currently lacking effective treatment options. The complete absence of PMM2 activity is incompatible with life, and all patients carry at least one missense destabilising variant that allows residual enzymatic function. This

Bleeding Disorders in Children With Genetic Diseases: A Narrative Review. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Paediatr
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.

Insight on molecular pathogenesis and pharmacochaperoning potential in phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency, provided by novel human phosphomannomutase 2 structures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021
AbstractPhosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) deficiency, the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2‐CDG), is a severe condition, which has no cure. Due to the identification of destabilizing mutations, our group aims at increasing residual activity in PMM2‐CDG patients, searching for pharmacochaperones.

Identification of a Homozygous PGM2L1 Variant in a Male Patient With Developmental Delay and Seizures. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Genet Genomic Med
A rare homozygous variant in the PGM2L1 gene (NM_173582.6: c.1673delC, p.Thr558Ilefs*19) was identified in a patient presenting with developmental delay, seizures, and bilateral frontotemporal subarachnoid widening. ABSTRACT Background PGM2L1 gene variants are associated with developmental delays, seizures, and various neurological and physical ...

Organoids for Metabolic Disease Modeling. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are a diverse group of rare genetic disorders that disrupt metabolic pathways, leading to severe clinical manifestations. Disease models ranging from complex animal models to simple in vitro systems have provided insights into IMDs, but each has limitations.

Expert-Designed Fact Sheets and AI-Based Analysis of Patient Symptoms to Combat Diagnostic Delays in Inherited Metabolic Diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT The importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal
