PMM2‐CDG and nephrotic syndrome: A case report
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a group of rare metabolic diseases, characterized by a defect in the protein glycosylation process. Enzymes involved in this metabolic mechanism have ubiquitous distribution; thus, their alteration can ...

Anthropometric Phenotype of Patients with PMM2-CDG
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 ...

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 (

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.

Stroke-Like Episodes in PMM2-CDG: When the Lack of Other Evidence Is the Only Evidence
Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation. PMM2-CDG patients develop chronic cerebellar atrophy as a neurological hallmark.

Effect of mutations found in carbohydrate‐deficient glycoprotein syndrome type IA on the activity of phosphomannomutase 2 [PDF]
Seven mutant forms of human phosphomannomutase 2 were produced in Escherichia coli and purified. These mutants had a V max of 0.2–50% of the wild enzyme and were unstable. The least active protein (R141H) bears a very frequent mutation, which has never been found in the homozygous state whereas the second least active protein (D188G) corresponds to a ...

AbstractCongenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) include 150 genetically and clinically heterogeneous diseases, showing significant glycoprotein hypoglycosylation that leads to pathological consequences in multiple organs and systems whose underlying mechanisms are not yet understood. A few cellular and animal models have been used to study specific

PMM2‐CDG caused by uniparental disomy: Case report and literature review
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) affects glycosylation pathways such as the N‐glycosylation pathway, resulting in loss of function of multiple proteins.

Six New Cases of 22q13.2 Gain Including TFC20: First Report of Triplication and Smallest Duplication Associated With Neurodevelopmental Delays. [PDF]
This study reports six new cases of 22q13.2 duplication and triplication, including the TCF20 gene, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and various morphological and systemic abnormalities. The findings suggest a variable expressivity, but their complete penetrance remains uncertain compared to well‐established loss‐of‐function variants ...

Hypoglycemia in CDG patients due to PMM2 mutations: Follow up on hyperinsulinemic patients
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Hypoglycemia has been reported in various CDG including PMM2‐CDG.
