Carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type III

MedGen UID:
91162
Concept ID:
C0349655
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: CDG X; Congenital disorder of glycosylation type I/IIX
SNOMED CT: CDG - Carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type III (277895009); Carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome type III (277895009)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0008909
OMIM®: 212067

Definition

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) are divided into 2 main groups: type I CDGs (see, e.g., 212065) comprise defects in the assembly of the dolichol lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) chain and its transfer to the nascent protein, whereas type II CDGs (see, e.g., 212066) refer to defects in the trimming and processing of the protein-bound glycans either late in the endoplasmic reticulum or the Golgi compartments. Conventionally, untyped and unclassified cases are labeled 'CDG-x' (Orlean, 2000; Marquardt and Denecke, 2003). The phenotypes described in this entry most likely do not represent a single disorder, but have been referred by the authors as CDG-x and are included here pending further molecular characterization. In a review of CDGs, Marquardt and Denecke (2003) stated that more than 20% of CDG patients identified still cannot be ascribed to a known enzyme defect and are thus named CDG-x. [from OMIM]

Clinical features

From HPO
Seizure
MedGen UID:
20693
Concept ID:
C0036572
Sign or Symptom
A seizure is an intermittent abnormality of nervous system physiology characterized by a transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain.
Epileptic spasm
MedGen UID:
315948
Concept ID:
C1527366
Disease or Syndrome
A sudden flexion, extension, or mixed extension-flexion of predominantly proximal and truncal muscles that is usually more sustained than a myoclonic movement but not as sustained as a tonic seizure. Limited forms may occur
Infantile spasms
MedGen UID:
854616
Concept ID:
C3887898
Disease or Syndrome
Infantile spasms represent a subset of "epileptic spasms". Infantile Spasms are epileptic spasms starting in the first year of life (infancy).
Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
MedGen UID:
867398
Concept ID:
C4021768
Finding
Abnormality of skin pigmentation
MedGen UID:
224697
Concept ID:
C1260926
Finding
An abnormality of the pigmentation of the skin.
