Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation
- Schneckenbecken DysplasiaAutosomal recessive
A prenatally lethal skeletal dysplasia (chondrodysplasia with snail-like pelvis) caused by variants in the nucleotide-sugar transporter gene SLC35D1.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
Inheritance
- Autosomal recessive
- It takes a changed copy from each parent. With one, you are a carrier and usually unaffected; when both parents are carriers, each child has a one-in-four chance of inheriting two.

- 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 6.2 kb of the gene's 54.8 kb; 1,068 of those bases code for the protein.

None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 54.8 kb of SLC35D1, introns included, not only the 6.2 kb of exons.
