Defective ALG9 causes CDG-1l

Alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase ALG9 (ALG9) normally catalyses the transfer of mannose to the lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) precursor. It adds the 7th and 9th mannose moieties to LLO. Defects in ALG9 are associated with congenital disorder of glycosylation 1l (ALG9-CDG, CDG1l; MIM:608776), a multisystem disorder caused by a defect in glycoprotein biosynthesis and characterised by under-glycosylated serum glycoproteins. CDG type 1 diseases result in a wide variety of clinical features, such as defects in the nervous system development, psychomotor retardation, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, coagulation disorders, and immunodeficiency (Frank et al. 2004, Weinstein et al. 2005). The LLO profile showed accumulation of (GlcNAc)2 (Man)6 (PP-Dol)1 and (GlcNAc)2 (Man)8 (PP-Dol)1 fragments, suggesting a defect in ALG9 and correlating with the normal function of ALG9 in adding the 7th and 9th mannose moieties (Frank et al. 2004).
