الوصف: | Background Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) are genetic diseases caused by pathogenic variants of genes involved in protein or lipid glycosylation. De novo variants in the SLC35A2 gene, which encodes a UDP‐galactose transporter, are responsible for CDGs with an X‐linked dominant manner. Common symptoms related to SLC35A2 variants include epilepsy, psychomotor developmental delay, hypotonia, abnormal facial and skeletal features, and various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings. Methods Whole‐exome sequencing was performed on the patient's DNA, and candidate variants were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. cDNA analysis was performed to assess the effect of the splice site variant using peripheral leukocytes. The X‐chromosome inactivation pattern was studied using the human androgen receptor assay. Results We identified a de novo splice site variant in SLC35A2 (NM_005660.2: c.274+1G>A) in a female patient who showed severe developmental delay, spastic paraplegia, mild cerebral atrophy, and delayed myelination on MRI, but no seizures. The variant led to an aberrant splicing resulting in an in‐frame 33‐bp insertion, which caused an 11‐amino acid insertion in the presumptive cytoplasmic loop. X‐inactivation pattern was random. Partial loss of galactose and sialic acid of the N ‐linked glycans of serum transferrin was observed. Conclusion This case would expand the phenotypic spectrum of SLC35A2 ‐related disorders to delayed myelination with spasticity and no seizures. |
