GDP-Man:Man(3)GlcNAc(2)-PP-Dol alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase (ALG11) transfers the fourth and fifth mannoses (Man) to the N-glycan precursor in an alpha-1,2 orientation. These additions are the last two on the cytosolic side of the ER membrane before the N-glycan is flipped to the luminal side of the membrane. Recently discovered defects in ALG11 have been linked to congential disorder of glycosylation, type 1p (ALG11-CDG, CGD1p) (Rind et al. 2010, Thiel et al. 2012). The disease is a multi-system disorder characterised by under-glycosylated serum glycoproteins. Early-onset developmental retardation, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, coagulation disorders and immunodeficiency are reported features of this disorder (Rind et al. 2010, Thiel et al. 2012).
