Autosomal recessive Ehlers†Danlos syndrome (EDS), caused by a deficiency of the extracellular matrix (ECM) protein tenascin-X (TNX), has been described in 11 patients. Its core features consist of hyperextensible skin, hypermobile joints and easy bruising. Muscle involvement with finger contractures was subsequently reported in only one of these cases. (...

P1.03 Disruption of dystroglycan†pikachurin interaction underlies the molecular pathogenesis of eye abnormalities in dystroglycanopathy
|
|
Dystroglycanopathy is a group of congenital and limb-girdle muscular dystrophies that includes Walker†Warburg syndrome, muscle†eye†brain disease, Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy, congenital muscular dystrophy 1C/D, and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2I/K/M/N. Hypoglycosylation of dystroglycan (DG) is a hallmark of these disorders. Eye abnormalities are often associated with more severe...

C.I.3 Overview of congenital muscular dystrophies
|
|
The congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) are a quite diverse group of disorders. Currently, more than 15 genes are known to cause CMD, and the resulting disorders can be broadly divided into three groups. The largest group results from mutations in genes encoding structural proteins. The commonest form, merosin deficient CMD,...

C.I.2 Defective glycosylation in congenital muscular dystrophies: From glycobiology to α-dystroglycanopathies
|
|
Glycosylation is the most common post-translational modification of proteins. The protein sequence data suggested that more than half of all proteins produced in mammalian cells are glycoproteins. Glycans of secreted glycoproteins affect many protein properties such as solubility, stability, protease sensitivity, and polarity, while glycans on cell surface glycoproteins are...
