A case of de novo splice site variant in SLC35A2 showing developmental delays, spastic paraplegia, and delayed myelination

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDGs) are genetic diseases caused by pathogenic variants of genes involved in protein or lipid glycosylation. De novo variants in the SLC35A2 gene, which encodes a UDP‐galactose transporter, are responsible for CDGs with an X‐linked dominant manner. Common symptoms related to SLC35A2 variants include epilepsy, psychomotor developmental delay, hypotonia, abnormal facial and skeletal features, and various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings.
