Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation
- Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG)
One of 98 genes linked to it
A large group of inherited conditions in which sugar chains (glycans) are not correctly built or attached to proteins and lipids, often affecting the brain, liver, blood clotting, growth and many other body systems. Most are autosomal recessive, but some are X-linked or autosomal dominant.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
Other Inborn Errors of Immunity
- Immunodeficiency Disease
One of 170 genes linked to it
Disease in which there is a deficiency or defect in the mechanisms of immunity, either cellular or humoral.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
HSCT for SCID and severe PIDs; immunoglobulin replacement (IVIG/SCIG) for antibody deficiencies; leniolisib (Joenja, FDA 2023) for APDS; gene therapy for ADA-SCID; abatacept for CTLA4/LRBA deficiency; prophylactic antibiotics; G-CSF for CGD
How PGM3 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 6.1 kb of the gene's 28.4 kb; 1,629 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads PGM3
61
positions in PGM3 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 28.4 kb of PGM3, introns included, not only the 6.1 kb of exons.
