Mondo Description STT3B-CDG is a form of congenital disorders of N-linked glycosylation characterized by intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, failure to thrive, developmental delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, seizures, optic nerve atrophy and respiratory difficulties. Genital abnormalities (micropenis, hypoplastic scrotum, undescended testes) have also been reported. STT3B-CDG is caused by mutations in the gene STT3B (3p24.1).

Uniprot Description A form of congenital disorder of glycosylation, a multisystem disorder caused by a defect in glycoprotein biosynthesis and characterized by under-glycosylated serum glycoproteins. Congenital disorders of glycosylation result in a wide variety of clinical features, such as defects in the nervous system development, psychomotor retardation, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, coagulation disorders, and immunodeficiency. The broad spectrum of features reflects the critical role of N-glycoproteins during embryonic development, differentiation, and maintenance of cell functions.
