| Identified Mutation |
TYR170CYS; In a patient with CDG Ij (608093), Wu et al. (Hum Mutat 22:144-150, 2003) identified reduced DPAGT1 enzymatic activity; sequencing of genomic DNA and cDNAs of the DPAGT1 gene identified, in the paternal allele, a 660A-G transition in exon 5, resulting in a tyr170-to-cys (Y170C) mutation. Although no mutation was identified in the maternal allele, it produced only 12% of the normal amount of mature mRNA; the remainder showed a complex exon skipping pattern that shifted the reading frame and resulted in a truncated nonfunctional protein. |
| Remarks |
Clinically affected; developed infantile spasms at age 4 months within 72 hours of receiving DPT immunization and diagnosis confirmed by hypsarrhythmia on EEG and treated with ACTH; mental retardation; microcephaly; arched palate; micrognathia; exotropia; fifth finger clinodactyly; single flexion creases; skin dimples on upper thighs; severe hypotonia; medically intractable seizures; minimal linguistic ability at age 6 years; normal liver and renal function; normal hematologic parameters; normal karyotype; normal brain MRI at age 6 months; PET scan showed multifocal areas of decreased metabolic activity; abnormal isoelectric focusing pattern of serum transferrin; reduced amount of normal LLO (lipid-linked oligosaccharide); assay for phosphomannomutase (CDG-Ia) and phosphomannose isomerase (CDG-Ib) were normal; GPT activity in microsomes in fibroblasts was less than 10% of the GPT activity in control fibroblasts when assayed either in the presence or absence of exogenous dolichol phosphate; donor subject has one allele with an A>G transition at nucleotide 660 in exon 5 of the DPAGT1 gene [660A>G] resulting in a substitution of cysteine for tyrosine at codon 170 [Tyr170Cys (Y170C)] and the other allele (maternal) produces alternative forms of DPAGT1 in which multiple exons are skipped; the reproducible alternative splicing was only observed in the donor subject and maternal cells; sequencing of entire gene with the exception of intron 5 did not reveal a mutation in the maternal allele; cells from donor subject produce only 12% normal DPAGT1 message from the maternal allele.
