Genes affected
ALG2 (HGNC:23159): (ALG2 alpha-1,3/1,6-mannosyltransferase) This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase 1 family. The encoded protein acts as an alpha 1,3 mannosyltransferase, mannosylating Man(2)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate and Man(1)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate to form Man(3)GlcNAc(2)-dolichol diphosphate. Defects in this gene have been associated with congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ih (CDG-Ii). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

ALG2-congenital disorder of glycosylation;C4015597:Congenital myasthenic syndrome 14 Uncertain:2
Jan 22, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 378 of the ALG2 protein (p.Arg378Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs56393253, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265036). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1132C>T (p.R378C) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the ALG2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1132, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 378 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
