Description |
Gillessen-Kaesbach-Nishimura syndrome (GIKANIS) is a rare lethal autosomal recessive syndrome with skeletal dysplasia, polycystic kidneys and multiple malformations. It has been reported that mutations in ALG9 cause GIKANIS. ALG9 encodes alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase, involved in the formation of the lipid-linked oligosaccharide precursor of N-glycosylation.
