{"doi":"10.1002/jimd.12378","title":"<i>ALG13</i> X‐linked intellectual disability: New variants, glycosylation analysis, and expanded phenotypes","abstract":"Pathogenic variants in ALG13 (ALG13 UDP-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase subunit) cause an X-linked congenital disorder of glycosylation (ALG13-CDG) where individuals have variable clinical phenotypes that include developmental delay, intellectual disability, infantile spasms, and epileptic encephalopathy. Girls with a recurrent de novo c.3013C>T; p.(Asn107Ser) variant have normal transferrin glycosylation. Using a highly sensitive, semi-quantitative flow injection-electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QTOF/MS) N-glycan assay, we report subtle abnormalities in N-glycans that normally account for <0.3% of the total plasma glycans that may increase up to 0.5% in females with the p.(Asn107Ser) variant. Among our 11 unrelated ALG13-CDG individuals, one male had abnormal serum transferrin glycosylation. We describe seven previously unreported subjects including three novel variants in ALG13 and report a milder neurodevelopmental course. We also summarize the molecular, biochemical, and clinical data for the 53 previously reported ALG13-CDG individuals. We provide evidence that ALG13 pathogenic variants may mildly alter N-linked protein glycosylation in both female and male subjects, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.","journal":"Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease","year":2021,"id":169177,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":29,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9459,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2021-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":273541,"name":"Miao He","orcid":"0000-0003-0731-6801","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":296353,"name":"Andrew C.
