Mondo Description TMEM165-CDG is a form of congenital disorders of N-linked glycosylation characterized by a psychomotor delay-dysmorphism (pectus carinatum, dorsolumbar kyphosis and severe sinistroconvex scoliosis, short distal phalanges, genua vara, pedes planovalgi syndrome) with postnatal growth deficiency and major spondylo-, epi-, and metaphyseal skeletal involvement. Additional features include facial dysmorphism (midface hypoplasia, internal strabism of the right eye, low-set ears, moderately high arched palate, small teeth), nephrotic syndrome, cardiac defects, and feeding problems. The disease is caused by mutations in the gene TMEM165 (4q12).

Uniprot Description An autosomal recessive disorder with a variable phenotype. Affected individuals show psychomotor retardation and growth retardation, and most have short stature. Other features include dysmorphism, hypotonia, eye abnormalities, acquired microcephaly, hepatomegaly, and skeletal dysplasia. Congenital disorders of glycosylation are caused by a defect in glycoprotein biosynthesis and characterized by under-glycosylated serum glycoproteins and a wide variety of clinical features. The broad spectrum of features reflects the critical role of N-glycoproteins during embryonic development, differentiation, and maintenance of cell functions.
