{"symbol":"ALG6","synonyms":["CDG1C"],"name":"ALG6, alpha-1,3-glucosyltransferase","description":"This gene encodes a member of the ALG6/ALG8 glucosyltransferase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the addition of the first glucose residue to the growing lipid-linked oligosaccharide precursor of N-linked glycosylation. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital disorders of glycosylation type Ic.
